Underwater Facilities Inspections and Assessments at Caribbean Cement Company, Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies.

Abstract

The objective of the underwater (U/W) facility assessments conducted at the Caribbean Cement Company, Kingston, Jamaica West Indies, is to provide a generalized structural conditions report of the wharf and two mooring platforms (East and West). This inspection included both topside examination of deck, stringers or beams, piles, pile caps, and bollards as well as an underwater (U/W) inspection of piles. As part of an engineering site survey for a proposed power barge moor the findings of this inspection indicate that the wharf and mooring platforms are adequate for intended purpose with no major modifications required. Keywords: Underwater inspection; Caribbean Cement Company, Kingston, Jamaica.
