Abutment

Abutment

 

The abutment is the first element in the construction of a boat bridge. This is a solution constructed into the shore or on the waterline and remains fastened to the ground and provides access to the boat bridge over a gangway. An abutment is not always necessary; however, is recommended in most instances. As a rule, the abutment is constructed on four screw piles or using concrete.

 

The abutment constructed on screw piles has a metal frame.

Dimensions of an abutment on a screw pile: width 1.2 m, length 1.4 m (1.68 m2)

Concrete abutment dimensions: width 1.4 m, length 0.8 m (1.12 m2)

The abutment is installed at a right angle to the waterline.

The gangway is attached to the abutment.
