Thank you for your nice Reply ..The history Channell talked about your type of project and they raised Bridges sections 150 high when they were building their new Bridge..So your idea would work .Many God Prayers on you winning a Contract 😅😅❤❤
This is not a new concept. (1) The US Navy has semi submersible ships (amphibious assault ships). (2) There are Commercial Semi submersible ships that are used to transport large ships and offshore oil platforms
Yes. People can afford this, but we can’t raise their taxes to pave the roads or fund pediatric oncology hospitals. Clearly a society with clear priorities.
I watch most here on mute voices no problem. Concept is incredible. Ship Buff research Glomar Explorer once owned by Howard Huges used to get Soviet Sub Bridge off ocean floor for US intel... similar use of hydrodynamics...
The US Army used to be great 👍 at this the only problem is they don't make a high enough bridge. I saw a wonderful barge when they built the NEW Tacoma Narrows bridge. It had 4 very powerful movable up and down Thrusters on each corner of the barge. There was also the most powerful TUG in Puget Sound working the barge for the strong tidal exchange. This massive Cable system that a big world wide crane company made had massive winches set up on bridge legs. I watched with "A" 😊 As the new bridge sections were lifted off the barge. Very slowly. The company had a booth at Con/ Exp in Las Vegas for explaining some of the jobs this company could do engineering wise. They had a film of the Tacoma Narrows bridge. YES you can replace or repair a bridge high up with this massive thrusting powered barge. I am hoping to see it work in Baltimore. You can place a whole new section of bridge deck in place very high up using this winch set up.
New new system. Dockwise was using the Dock Express 11 and super servant 3 and 4 for this work already 25years ago. The use of semi submersible vessels to transport equipment is al least 45 years old. Before that semi submersible towed barges were used at least since 1976.
