Abstract

We investigated the morphological, structural and institutional advantages of floating structures, taking into account the trends of floating structures and related research trends. As a result, it was found that utilization (purpose and technology) of floating structures in the country is extremely limited, and we recognized the need to consider the possibility of utilization in a wide range.
