Notable Accomplishments
The most significant challenge with this project was designing the piping systems to accommodate for the tidal fluctuations (minus 4 feet to plus 8 feet). This was accomplished through collaboration and teamwork with the piping system manufacturer, OmegaFlex, to custom design piping systems and cradles to hold the double-wall dock connectors in a safe manner during the rise and fall of the tides.
