Right out of college I worked on Terminal 6 in Portland OR. My job was inspecting each and every sheet pile driven into the Columbia R. to create a row of caissons forming the pier face. As you know pile driving is based on driving to resistance. I marked each sheet pile with an approval chalk mark at the resistance point. When done with this project I figured we had driven the equivalent of 20 linear miles of piling. The caissons were then filled with compacted sand and topped with a 24inch concrete deck. Good memories.

We basically do almost every different type of construction while building something below the water , we are licensed and trained to do so , well rounded Dockbuilders are. We do pretty much anything that is below the water level and on the water or shore. One day I'm building a bumper system so boats don't slam into the bridge or the barges , and the next building form work for the freedom towers foundation or even working on the subway tracks and of course there's the divers and tenders who do all the fun underwater work. So its a fun job , lots of different things to chose to do. Thank you again , its nice to talk about what I do every day. Or a summary of it.

It was a joke when they kept sending divers down, but couldn't see anything. I was thinking why not pull dirty water from the bottom of the shaft, filter it and add a bit more clean water so that the clean water in the search area's hydrostatic pressure would push out the dirty water. They act as if people centuries ago would be able to construct something which modern man using modern equipment and techniques wouldn't be able to access. They think there were flood tunnels which are booby traps. No the reason everything floods is because it is a relatively small permable island.

What the construction companies should do is form an alliance with Posideon, he can easily move the water for them

You forget one major type of construction, drydock builds. Made out of concrete, steel or other materials its just towed away to a final resting place.

@Rafael If you are curious watch those documentaries: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZaVZ4iubrZ3apY kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4bUo3WMabicp7M Main difference between premade constructions and those made in keson is that it was probably better to made them in dry dock or just impossible to made keson big enough to build it like this (Troll A). Some tunnels are built in dry dock and then submerged (look for Boston Big Dig). I believe that difference is large at least to mention of that type of construction.

@@piotrlenar5652 it is spelled caisson, not keson which is a nonsensical word, not hard to figure out how to spell when spellcheck (should) offer caisson as the proper spelling. And yes many large formats can now be more eaisly precast at a dry dock and loaded out to location and forgo the need for a caisson and thus forgo the dangers of that confined method of casting.

@@Joshua79C Keson (caisson) sorry, it didn't show it as a mistake so i assumed the word is similar to my native language. And it isn't nonsensical you are just unfamiliar with that kind of spelling. And when I check it caisson is french word and you read it wrong as all words in US english borrowed from european languages.

Oddly enough there is a company with that name and I did not mean it is nonsensical in seriousness, Yeah I figured you do not speak English but Google only shows it as caisson for me and could not find alternate spelling in other language (have not even tried it in translator tool to see how it is written in some other languages), but curious to what your native tongue be.
