Golden Ray Vessel Salvage – East River Breasting Dolphins

Share This:

T&T Salvage contracted SJ Hamill to supply and construct twelve (12) pile supported breasting dolphins in the East River for use on the Golder Ray ship emergency salvage project. The dolphins consisted of 54″ x 3/4″ wall steel pipe piling 85′ long that were driven plumb with twin battered (4.8:12) 36″ x 1/2″ x 80′ support piles. The 54″ pile cap top frames were designed by SJ Hamill and field welded in place. SJ Hamill worked a 7-12 shift to complete the project per schedule for the emergency salvage.
