DOCK TYPE
2.4.1 General
The dock is of the box or caisson type, non-selfdocking, and consists of one continuous pontoon with two
sidewalls mounted on top and is of all welded construction.
The dock is suitable for service in sheltered conditions.

Note: When the water level is higher than the air pipe
opening the trapped air presses up and the tank gauge no
longer gives the correct water level reading. However,
more importantly, the difference in readings between tanks
will give the correct hydrostatic head on the tanks
boundary bulkheads.

4.3.2 Objectives
A pumping plan is to be provided for each ship to
demonstrate the following objectives:
a) Ensure that the dock has sufficient lifting capacity to lift
the ship in the desired longitudinal position on the
dock.
b) During the docking evolution, neither the ship nor the
combined dock and ship will become unstable
c) The longitudinal bending moments are within
acceptable range
d) The tank boundaries will not be overloaded due to
excessive differential ballast levels

4.3.6 Stability
Where the vessel experiences a knuckle load the stability
of the ship will be reduced until the vessel has fully sued
on all blocks, at which point the vessels stability becomes
part of the docks stability. The reduced stability of the
vessel due to a knuckle load can be determined as follows:

The line of normal force for all blocking shall pass through
the middle one-third of the block base as shown below:
b)
After the vessel has sued at one end, pumping should not
be stopped for any reason other than an emergency until
she is fully sued i.e. when the water level is seen to leave
the forward suing marks indicating that the whole of the
keel is resting on the blocks, and particular attention
should be paid to guys and tackles during the intervening
period.
If an emergency necessitates stopping the pumps during
this time, the ships position should be checked before
recommencing pumping to ensure that leakages have not
caused the ship to float up and change her position.
Bilge blocks higher than 1.80m, as measured from the
bottom of the block to the highest point of the soft cap,
shall be tied together in pairs by means of cribbing or
bracing. If the side blocks are hauled into position during
the docking evolution while tied together, then they shall
be hauled simultaneously.
After the dock has been raised 500mm after fully suing,
pumping is temporarily halted whilst the vessel position is
checked and that the blocks fit the vessel (when a diver is
present).
Pumping is then resumed and the dock raised.
5 DOCKING/UNDOCKING
b)
Page 13
c)
5.3 UNDOCKING
6 DOCK OPERATION
6.1
In all cases, any shores under the cut up forward and aft
must be removed before flooding the dock to avoid the risk
of crushing the bottom plating. For instance, if the vessel
when rising from the blocks trims by the stern, a
considerable pressure would be exerted on the shores
under the after cut up, and as this pressure would be
localised over the area of the heads of the shores,
crushing of the bottom plating would result.
Whilst the vessel is in dock a careful record is to be kept of
all weights removed, shifted or placed aboard in order to
estimate the draughts at undocking. As a result of the
calculations involved, it may be found necessary to load
the vessel to prevent any appreciable trim or heel that
would otherwise occur on undocking.
Before undocking, the 'Undocking Certificate', prepared by
dockyard personnel and checked by the dockmaster and
ships master, must be signed. This states that:
(a) All openings in the ship's bottom are shut, and any
valves worked on by ship's staff are in good order.
(b) All details of any weights added, removed or
moved in the ship since entering dock have been
listed on the certificate.
5.4 CORRECTION OF LIST AND TRIM IN THE SHIP
When docking a ship of normal form on middle line blocks
only, care must be taken to see that the ship is upright, as
if docking in a graving dock. When docking a ship on three
or more lines of blocks, provided that the angle of the heel
does not exceed 3 degrees, it is not so important to take
measures to upright the ship, as the dock may be laid over
to suit.
Great care must be taken, however, that the ship is well
centred on the blocks, proper allowance having been
made for the heel; also that the dock has been heeled over
to exactly the same angle as the ship. It is most important
that the ship is upright when the dock is levelled up.(See
figure 12).

6.5.1 Preparation
6.5.2 Sinking
Prior to sinking the dock, the pre-checks given in section
6.2 shall be carried out.
As during the docking process great care must be taken to
reduce longitudinal and transverse stresses. Tanks should
therefore be flooded in the same sequence as they were
pumped, keeping end tanks for balance of dock weight.
These will, therefore, not be opened up until the later
stages of the sinking and it should be noted that at the
start of the operation the water levels in them will be higher
than that in the tanks under the vessel, thus indiscriminate
opening up would lead to rapid siphoning and high
stresses. Pumps are always to be kept in readiness to
correct any abnormal condition.
When undocking short ships, where most of the water from
the pontoon has been taken from the compartments
immediately beneath the ship, a considerable difference in
the height of internal water may exist between the middle
and end compartments. In such cases, only the valves of
the compartments under the ship should be opened at the
beginning of the sinking until the water in the pontoon
begins to level up, then all valves may be opened and the
sinking may proceed normally.
If material alterations have been made to the ship while in
dock, likely to alter her trim when afloat, sink with only one
of the two inlets valves per section open until a significant
portion of the vessels weight is being supported by its own
buoyancy, the remainder still being on the blocks.
Throughout the sinking, the dock must be kept as free as
possible from longitudinal deflection and the admission of
water must be regulated accordingly. Any deflection
observed must be corrected immediately by appropriate
flooding or pumping. Pumps are to be kept ready for
immediate use if required to assist in correcting any
abnormal condition caused by temporary loss of control,
damage etc.
Page 17
7 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
7.1
8 CAREENING OF DOCK
8.1 METHOD TO BE ADOPTED
The maximum possible angle of heel can be obtained only
by first sinking the dock to the fullest permissible extent,
and then pumping out the tanks on the side that it is
desired to raise. During these operations constant
attention should be directed towards ensuring that the
longitudinal deflection does not become excessive (see
section 2.6)
8.2 CRANES
Prior to the ship being brought into the dock, the position of
the damage is to be ascertained by a diver, and the dock
blocks removed in the vicinity. When the ship is in position
in the dock a diver is to be sent down again to examine the
bottom to see that all jagged or loose plating is clear of the
blocks. It may be necessary to cut away some of the
damaged structure if this is liable to touch the bottom of
the dock or the top of the blocks.
7.2
8.3 MISCELLANEOUS
Ensure that all cargo and sizeable pieces of equipment are
properly stowed or lashed so as to minimise the possibility
of shifting as the dock heels.

NUMBER REQUIRED : 200 BLOCKS (173 FOR STANDARD OUTFIT AND 27 EXTRA)
THE STANDARD OUTFIT FOR THE FLOATING DOCK CONSISTS OF 173 BLOCKS.
WHERE ADDITIONAL BLOCKS ARE USED, THEIR WEIGHT MUST BE ADDED TO THE

The Group Lift Tables have been prepared to enable the approximate determination of the ballast
levels within tanks to provide lift to match the load of the vessel carried by a transverse group of tanks.
Transverse ballasting of tanks are generally level.
For dock waterlines above the pontoon, the values obtained become increasingly less usable,
particularly above about a dock draught of 9m due to the small sidewall waterplane coupled with
sloping end bulkheads etc. However, values should be sufficient for determining values for ships at half
ship draught and less. For values above, it would be normally sufficient to rely on the deep sink values.
Intermediate values, if required, should be determined using a more detailed assessment.
