It is known to make berths from wooden logs. The assembly of the logs into a coffin frame has been done by means of bolted joints. In this case, the assembly of the chest frame has become relatively labor-intensive and craftsmanship-intensive. Another problem with coffins made of wooden logs has been the difficulty of embedding a wooden coffin frame.

The invention relates to a coffin-like or silo-like structure, in particular for quay coffins, consisting of frames assembled from log-like steel-concrete beams with notched ends at the ends of the beams, two opposite notches at each end of the beams spaced a short distance from both ends of the beams in adjacent walls, the reinforced concrete beams are at different levels and connected to each other by means of cross-corner joints so that the ends of the longer reinforced concrete beams protrude from the plane formed by the shorter beams. Such a structure is known, for example, from GB patent publication 569,161. In this known structure, the ends of both cross-beams protrude outside the joint to form a cross with reinforcement casting at each of the four corners. Such a 2,66450 structure is not suitable for the manufacture of quay coffins from sequentially installed coffin-like or silo-like structures. Firstly, the reinforcement of the corners under water is a laborious operation and secondly, it should be possible to connect the structures firmly together in succession to form long quay coffins. Third, the protruding ends of the beams would interfere with the anchoring of the vessels to the side of the berth.

The object of the invention is to provide such a coffin-like or silo-like structure which enables the construction of long quay coffins easily and quickly at the highest possible degree of factory production without any manual work.

This object is achieved on the basis of the features of the invention set out in the appended claims.

In the following, an embodiment of the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 shows a berth according to the invention seen from the front or from the side.

Figure 2 shows the same end seen and Figure 3 shows the same seen from above.

Figure 4 shows in more detail the log-like reinforced concrete beam coming to the long side of the pier coffin according to the invention.

Figure 5 shows a reinforced concrete beam coming to the short side of the quay coffin and Figure 6 shows the end-to-end joining of two quay coffin frames to form a quay coffin of a desired length.

In order to build the quay coffin according to the invention, log-like steel-concrete beams shown in Figures 4 and 5 are first manufactured in the molds at the factory. The beams 1 coming to the long side of the coffin are provided with notches 3 at the opposite end edges of the narrower sides and a notch 5 on the wider side at the corresponding point.

3,66450

The opposite end edges of the narrower sides of the log-like reinforced concrete beam coming to the short side of the coffin have notches 6 which separate the end flanges 7 at both ends of the beam 2.

The cross-corner connection between the beams 1 and 2, as shown in particular in Figure 6, is formed so that the notches 3 and 6 abut, whereby the flanges 4 and 6 engage behind the intersecting beam. By dimensioning the depth of the notches 3 and 6 to be sufficient with respect to the height of the beams 1 and 2, the beams are made to rest tightly on top of each other. It can be further seen from Figure 6 that the flanges 7 go into the notches 5 on the wide side of the beams 1 so that the end surfaces of the flanges 7 are flush with the outer surfaces of the long sides formed by the beams 1. This is important on the long side of the berth, which serves as the outer side of the berth on which vessels are anchored for loading and unloading.

The end flanges 4 in the long side beams 1 remain entirely projecting outside the outer surface of the short side beams 2. In this case, when the coffin frames are placed opposite the ends, an intermediate space shown in Fig. 6 is formed between the ends, which is poured with concrete 8 to fill the successive coffin frames together. In this case, the successive coffin frames remain parallel and do not tilt relative to each other. The chest frames can be constructed as shown, with the ends facing each other as an extension of each other to produce a berth casket of the desired length.

The berth coffins according to the invention can be used for the construction of berths which vary greatly in type and size.

Reinforced concrete logs as shown can also be used to make other coffin-like or silo-like structures. By filling the cavity of a frame made of reinforced concrete logs with polyurethane filling, it can also be used as a pontoon in the construction of floating piers.

Claims (2)

4,66450 A coffin-like or silo-like structure, in particular for quay coffins, consisting of frames assembled from log-like reinforced concrete beams with notches for transverse corners at the ends of the beams, each of the beams (1, 2) having two opposite notches (3, 6) at short distances from both ends of the beams to form end flanges (4, 7), wherein in the adjacent walls the reinforced concrete beams (1, 2) are at different levels and connected to each other by cross-corner joints so that the ends (4) of the longer reinforced concrete beams (1) protrude from the shorter beams (2), that two or more coffin or silo frames are arranged longitudinally in succession so that the space between the opposing projecting ends (4) of the longer reinforced concrete logs (1) between the planes formed by the shorter beams (2) is filled with concrete casting (8). Pier coffin structure according to claim 1, characterized in that the outer sides of the longer reinforced concrete beams (1) have notches (5) which receive the end flanges (7) of the shorter reinforced concrete beams (2) so that the end surfaces of the shorter reinforced concrete beams (2) level with the long outer side of the dock arch structure.
