A method of constructing a floating spar type structure comprises fabricating a buoyant hard tank section 10 in a vertical orientation, fabricating a truss section 28, submerging the truss section in a vertical orientation, floating the hard tank above the truss section and moving the truss section up to engage with the hard tank. The step of moving the truss section up to engage the hard tank may be accomplished using lifting equipment 48 and lines 46, while stabbing receptacles 50 may be provided in the hard tank for engagement with stabbing posts (52, Fig 18) on the truss section. A permanent attachment may be formed between the hard tank and the truss section after engagement of the two. |
