STUDY ON IMPROVEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION PRECISION DURING THE INSTALLATION OF BREAKWATER CAISSON USING A REAL TIME WAVE MONITORING SYSTEM

Abstract

 It is important to understand the wave characteristics because the wave affect to construction precision accuracy in the maritime construction. Especially the installation of floating caisson is always oscillating due to wave action. In this study, the behaviors of floating caisson were calculated, and the results were compared with observed data. Furthermore, the real time wave monitoring was carried out. From these processes, it is possible to grasp to behaviors of floating caisson, and improvement of construction accuracy is expected.
