Problem
APCL A&P Falmouth Docks needed a stable platform for surveyors to conduct inclination tests on two of there Type T23, Naval Frigates, Iron Duke and St Albans.
This required good stable access to the load line markings on the hull to the waterline.
Solution
ScaffFloat mobilised an 8x4m self-propelled pontoon with twin high-thrust 60hp engines. A water level shelf was built onto the front with vertical fender pads, the ScaffFloat could then ‘push on’ to the ships hull and gave the surveyors excellent access to take their measurements.
