The Dry Dock Complex consists of six interconnected buildings located at 1801–1803 Atwater Street in Detroit, Michigan, as well as the remains of a nearby dry dock at 1900 Atwater Street. The 1801-1803 Atwater complex is also known as the Globe Trading Company Building, and in 2015 was opened by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources as the Outdoor Adventure Center. The complex is significant as a historic maritime manufacturing facility.Thomas A. Klug, Historic American Engineering Record: Dry Dock Engine Works, HAER no.

In January 2017, it was announced that Kishorn Port Ltd had been awarded £500,000 to test and revamp the dry dock gates. The East gate has not been moved since 1992 when the caissons for the Skye Bridge were built in the dry dock. The West gate has not been moved since the Maureen Articulated Loading Column ("ALC") vacated the dock in 1982. The dry dock itself has since been completely drained and inspected now that the gates are back in place and fully sealed.

The case occurred when an owner of a dry dock supplied ropes that supported a stage slung over the side of a ship. The stage failed because the supplied ropes had been previously burned. The failure of the stage injured an employee of an independent contractor working in the dry dock. The dry dock owner, the defendant, had failed in his duty of care to give reasonably careful attention to the condition of the ropes, prior to employing them to hold up the stage.

During construction, serious problems with quicksand ultimately killed 20 workers and injured 400 others. After the project was abandoned by five different private builders, the federal government intervened to complete Dry Dock 4, which became known as the "Hoodoo" dock. In conjunction with Dry Dock 4's construction, it was also proposed to lengthen the wooden Dry Dock 3 from long. A paymasters' office, a construction and repair shop/storehouse, and a locomotive shed for the Navy Yard's now-defunct railroad system were also constructed.

A large floating dry dock, the third-largest in the world at the time of its construction, was located at the base. It was used by the aircraft carrier for a refit in 1939. At the time, the dry dock was described as having been floated from England to Singapore 10 years before.

Stoommachinegebouw The steam engine building (stoommachinegebouw) was built from 1813-1823. It was designed by Jan Blanken in neo-classical style. The building was to house a steam engine. Its steam would drive 9 cylindrical pumps to quickly empty dry dock I. A subterraneous sewer connected the building to the dry dock.

After 7 May 2011 christening, the destroyer was moved to dry dock for several months in order to finalize construction.

Its maximum speed is around . Every ten years the vessel undergoes maintenance and repair in a dry dock in Austria.

The ship is the last survivor of its type and can be seen today at dry dock in Greenwich, London.

Model of Vlissingen dry dock in 1783 Perry's dry dock in 1964 The first dry-dock of the Netherlands was built adjacent to the dock from 1704-1705, at a cost of 37,000 guilders It was nicknamed 'Perry's dokje' after Captain John Perry who designed it in 1697. Perry (1670-1733) was an engineer later known for his book The State of Russia under the Present Czar (1716) and other works. The curious location of the dock between two bodies of water has to do with the constant water level in the dock. The traditional way to empty a dry dock was to put a ship in at high tide, and then to get rid of most the water by letting it flow out at low tide.

South Brisbane Dry Dock is a heritage-listed dry dock at 412 Stanley Street, South Brisbane, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was designed by William David Nisbet and built from 1876 to 1887. It is also known as the Government Graving Dock. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.

Thompson and Lawson, p. 255."Cornelius Vanderbilt Home", The New York Times, 1903-08-15. After a brief period in receivership due to industrial action in 1903, Morse reincorporated his yard in 1904 as the Morse Dry Dock and Repair Company. Launch of the 5th section of the Morse floating dry dock in 1919.

A fourth dry dock took place in April 2004 to replace a thrust-bearing propulsion unit. A fifth dry dock was held in March 2005 to replace the ship's starboard thrust bearing unit. A sixth dry dock was performed in September 2006 to repair one of the ship's propulsion pods. Numerous unsuccessful repairs led Royal Caribbean to file a lawsuit against Rolls-Royce and Alstom in August 2003 for $300 million to recover lost revenue and the costs associated with the faulty pods on all four Millennium-class ships.

On 29 October 2019, Newport News Shipbuilding began flooding the dry dock where John F. Kennedy has been under construction. The process of filling the dry dock with more than of water took place over several days, and it marked the first time the ship has been in water. Once the ship was afloat, it was moved to west end of the dry dock. The ship was christened on 7 December 2019 by Caroline Kennedy who reenacted the bottle bash she did when the first John F. Kennedy (CV-67) was christened 50 years ago.

Bay Shipbuilding Company was formed in 1968 after The Manitowoc Company closed Manitowoc Shipbuilding Company and purchased Sturgeon Bay Shipbuilding and then Christy Corporation in 1970, which were adjacent on the east side of the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal. Sturgeon Bay Shipbuilding & Dry Dock was formerly Rieboldt, Wolter & Co., Universal Shipbuilding Company and Sturgeon Bay Dry Dock Company. Christy Corporation was formerly Leathem D. Smith Towing & Wrecking Company, Leathem D. Smith Dock Company and Leathem D. Smith Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Company. Bay Shipbuilding initially invested $500,000 in purchasing the two yards.

The South Brisbane Dry Dock is opposite the former South Brisbane Municipal Chambers and adjacent to the former South Brisbane Railway Easement and the former South Brisbane Library. Other historically significant places in the immediate vicinity are Cumbooquepa at Somerville House, Ship Inn, and South Brisbane Memorial Park.Altars (stepped sides) of South Brisbane Dry Dock, 2007 (HMAS Diamantina to the right)The original section of the South Brisbane Dry Dock is U-shaped with stepped sides while the 1887 extension has sloping sides. The dock was originally long, but was extended to .

Polhemsdockan, the Polhem dry dock, is situated in the World heritage Örlogsstaden Karlskrona, was built in 1717-1724 and was the first dry dock in Sweden. It is cut out in the cliff on Lindholmen island and catered for shipping including the largest warships of its day. While dry docks in other countries where let dry by the tidal water going out, in this dock water pumps are used, as the Baltic Sea doesn't have any significant tide. The dry dock was built by 600 men and was an international sensation for its advanced design.

Two destroyers in dry dock, and , were destroyed when bombs penetrated their fuel bunkers. The leaking fuel caught fire; flooding the dry dock in an effort to fight fire made the burning oil rise, and both were burned out. Cassin slipped from her keel blocks and rolled against Downes. The light cruiser was holed by a torpedo.

May 17, 1920 The Globe He then moved to Brooklyn Robins Dry Dock for the 1920-1921 season. The move to Robins paid off when Dry Dock took the 1921 National Challenge Cup title. In 1921, several teams from the NAFBL merged with teams from the Southern New England Soccer League to form the first American Soccer League.

Each and every Friday, Dry Dock taps a special one-off firkin, a cask-conditioned variation of their available beers. Occasionally, the beers are conditioned with odd items such as wasabi and rice. In 2010, Dry Dock served their Kölsch from a watermelon and their Half Moon Pumpkin Ale through a locally-grown 208 lb pumpkin.

The massive cranes are named after the Biblical figures Samson and Goliath. Dry Dock 12 at Newport News Shipbuilding at is the largest dry dock in the USA. The largest floating- dock in North America is named The Vigorous. It is operated by Vigor Industries in Portland, OR, in the Swan Island industrial area along the Willamette River.

By this time, all vessels at Brooklyn Navy Yard were constructed outdoors, rather than inside shipbuilding houses, as it was easier for overhead cranes. During this time, the waterfront was rebuilt. Dry Dock 4, a brick-and-concrete dry dock with a capacity for ships of up to long, was planned in 1900 and constructed between 1905 and 1913.

Only a few very minor ships would be built in Willemsoord. In 1822 the first buildings were ready: Dry Dock I, Wet Dock, Sea Sluice, Pump House (with steam engine) and Werfkanaal (Yard Canal). A second wave of construction took place between 1857 and 1866. It comprised the construction of Dry Dock II and a new Pump Building.

Inconstant was condemned on 17 August 1842. She was broken up in dry dock № 6 at Brest, starting on 4 December 1843.

M/V Spokane, , (center) under construction at 80% completion, , and other ships at Todd Shipyards in Seattle, 1983 Vigor Shipyards (formerly Todd Shipyards) was founded in 1916 as the William H. Todd Corporation through the merger of Robins Dry Dock & Repair Company of Erie Basin, Brooklyn, New York, the Tietjen & Long Dry Dock Company of Hoboken, New Jersey, and the Seattle Construction and Dry Dock Company. The Seattle shipyard could trace its history back to 1882, when Robert Moran opened a marine repair shop at Yesler's Wharf. This shop became the Moran Brothers Shipyard in 1906 and the Seattle Construction & Dry Dock Company at the end of 1911. The shipyard has performed building and maintenance work for, among others, the U.S. and Royal Australian Navies, the United States Coast Guard, and the Washington State Ferries.

There is also a proposal to develop a large dry dock, shipyard and ship repair facility; however these continue to remain on paper.

For Surabaya this size limit was also not applicable, and like the dry dock in Le Havre, it would operate in salt water.

Klug, p. 7 The firm set up shop on Atwater, between Orleans and Dequindre, across from the dry dock firm that was then called Campbell & Owen. The firm slowly acquired surrounding lots, and by 1880 owned nearly the entire city block back to Guoin Street.Klug, p. 8 (The city vacated Dequindre in the vicinity of the Dry Dock Engine Works in 1917,Klug, p. 43 and Guoin some time later; neither street currently exists in the area.) The main product line of the Dry Dock Engine Works was marine engines, and they produced 129 engines between 1867 and 1894.Klug, p.

In launching the $40 million project, BIG had to reinforce an abandoned concrete dry dock on the site, long, wide and deep, building the museum on the periphery of the reinforced dry dock walls which will form the facade of the new museum. The dry dock will also host exhibitions and cultural events throughout the year. The museum's interior is designed to simulate the ambiance of a ship's deck, with a slightly downward slope. The exhibition gallery is to house an extensive collection of paintings, model ships, and historical equipment and memorabilia from the Danish Navy.

Mort's Dock was the brainchild of industrialist Mort and former steamship captain T. S. Rountree (or Rowntree). Steam ships had first appeared in Sydney Harbour in 1853 but no repair or maintenance facilities existed to cater for the new vessels. In 1854, Mort and Rountree purchased an area of land at Waterview Bay on the northern side of the Balmain peninsula and excavated a dry dock measuring . Rowntree and Mort formed the Waterview Bay Dry Dock Company (later Mort's Dock & Engineering Company) in 1853 and built Australia's first dry dock and patent slip on the site.

When the water is pumped out of the chambers, the dry dock rises and the ship is lifted out of the water on the rising deck, allowing work to proceed on the ship's hull. A large floating dry dock involves multiple rectangular sections. These sections can be combined to handle ships of various lengths, and the sections themselves can come in different dimensions. Each section contains its own equipment for emptying the ballast and to provide the required services, and the addition of a bow section can facilitate the towing of the dry dock once assembled.

Another ship to use Dry Dock Number 3 was the former from November 1998 to March 1999. Many of the buildings and cranes of the Navy Annex still stand, with their numbers being maintained. Dry Dock Number 3 is used by the Boston Ship Repair company to repair ships – mostly those of the US Navy, United States Maritime Service and Military Sealift Command.

11 However, the firm also produced stationary and portable steam engines, as well as mining equipment, mill gearing, and brass and iron casting. In 1883, Dry Dock Engine Works bought the nearby boiler shop of Desotell & Hudson, expanding their product line.Klug, p. 8 Although unimportant at the time, the Dry Dock Engine Works is significant as an early employer of Henry Ford.

Dom Fernando II e Glória a wooden-hulled, 50 gun frigate of the Portuguese Navy is on display in a dry dock beside the transport interchange. In 1990 the Portuguese Navy decided to restore the ship to her appearance in the 1850s. She has been on display at Cacilhas since 2008. A submarine is also on display in the adjoining dry dock.

USS Sotoyomo was in the same floating dry dock when the USS Shaw exploded: December 7, 1941 Sotoyomo was in floating dry dock with undergoing overhaul when Pearl Harbor was attacked 7 December 1941. Explosions and fires on Shaw greatly damaged Sotoyomo which resulted in total submersion. Originally Sotoyomo was deemed a total loss, but she was later refloated, repaired, and rehabilitated.

Dry Dock 1's masonry superstructure uses of granite from Maine and Connecticut, as well as supplementary material from New York. The stone floor of the dry dock is wide, and the floor curves in an inverted arch shape toward the edges of the sides and the landward (southwest) end. The center of the floor is mostly flat, with a groove.

At the time Surabaya Wooden Dock of 1,100 tons was simply known as the Surabaya dry dock, or Surabaya floating dry dock (Dutch: drijfdok). The labels 'wooden' and '1,100 tons' were added later. At the time of her construction all floating dry docks were made of wood. For the Dutch this changed when Onrust Dock of 3,000 tons became operational in 1869.

In dry-dock from November 1943 until January 1944. Served as a transport ship, and modified for the anti- submarine role in late 1944.

The war also brought a new shipyard operated by the Everett-Pacific Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Company, which employed 6,000 workers and closed in 1949.

Diagram of Detroit Dry Dock, 1894 (North is to the left). The only remaining structures are the machine shop and Dry Dock #2 Five of six buildings of the Engine Works complex are visible in this image; from left to right: the end of the industrial loft, the foundry, chipping room, end of the machine shop addition, and the end of the machine shop. Although even after 1892 the two firms were technically separate, they essentially operated as a single business unit, with the same principals in charge of both. In 1899, this relationship became more formal, as the Dry Dock Engine Works, the Detroit Dry Dock Company, and the Detroit Sheet Metal and Brass Works were combined to form the Detroit Shipbuilding Company, which itself was a subsidiary of the American Shipbuilding Company headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio.

The first Amsterdam dock in 1843 In the Netherlands Amsterdam was in almost the same situation as Surabaya. It wanted to have a dry dock, but had a problem with the weak grounds of the city. Houses could be supported by driving piles till they hit solid ground, but this was no solution for the massive pressures that a graving dock faced. When the first modern floating dry dock started to operate in New York in 1839-1840, it got the attention of Jan Daniel Diets. He bought the plans of the American floating dry dock, and soon the first Amsterdam floating dry dock was put inot use on 30 November 1842, lifting the frigate Koning Willem II of 39.6 m length, 11 m beam and 3.6 m draught and about 800 tons, belonging to J.P. Janette Walen.

On 15 May 1859 the budget for the navy rose to an unheard of 10,249,025 guilders. By the time that Lotsy resigned in March 1861, the fleet had been vastly improved. There were five floating batteries, three steam frigates, 10 screw steam ships, and 12 small steam ships. Also the dry dock at Willemsoord had been repaired and the new dry dock had been finished.

Djambis next voyage would be to the East Indies. In September 1862 she was planned to be the first ship to use the new dry-dock in Willemsoord. While workmen were preparing for her entrance, the bottom of the dock suddenly ripped open, causing enormous damage. The next plan was to have the frigate Alexander leave the old dry-dock on 6 October so Djambi could enter.

On , a tender for the construction of a yard was awarded to Sir John Jackson Ltd. The construction used Portland cement from England, as well as granite blocks from Norway. The foundation stone was laid on , and the dry dock was opened on , by the Duke of Connaught. The Dockyard (including the dry dock) was handed to South Africa in 1957, as part of the Simonstown Agreement.

This happened in the night of 22-23 August 1878 the dry dock sank. Afterwards James Donald was blamed for having tested the dry dock on his own accord, without consent of the consent of the management, and knowing that the bed did not meet the requirements. At least this is what NIDM and Raalte, Behrend & Co stated in a contract they made to solve the situation.

In April 1856 De Smit van den Broecke proposed a budget law requesting 200,000 guilders for a new Dry dock in Willemsoord. The reason for the new dry dock was that the dry docks in Vlissingen and Hellevoetsluis were too small for the new big ships. The house of representatives wanted the minister to buy a floating dock, partly out of worry that a dug-out dry-dock would lead to a repetition of the problems of the existing leaky dock. (Which would later indeed prove to be the case.) After the minister refused to withdraw the bill, it was refused by 38 to 14 votes.

This commercial graving dock was capable of handling the largest vessels of the day. In 1893, to the east of this, there was a timber pond of connected to the No.1 dock by a short channel almost parallel with the then-existing dry-dock, but this link was later severed and part of its length converted to another dry-dock with the pond beyond filled in to make way for the necessary high-level rail viaducts and embankments run to the No.2 dock coal hoists. The remaining dry-dock, minus its floatable caisson, is still flooded with the waterline commoned with that of the two docks (July 2017).

OR&N; ruled out Esquimalt dry-dock for the work, saying that it had received "shabby treatment" when dry dock had taken in another vessel, apparently in greater need of repair, ahead of Olympian. The trip to Portland did not come off because Olympian’s insurers demanded too high a premium to insure the vessel during the voyage. OR&N; then decided to use the dry dock at Esquimalt, but this does not seem to have occurred either, as Olympian was still moored up at Seattle and in need of repair in late February 1891, with OR&N; reported to be still undecided as to where to have the work done.

James McMillan Dry Dock Engine Works, a marine engine manufacturer, was formed in 1866 by William Cowie, Edward Jones, and Robert Donaldson, with Cowie as president.

2, looking toward the river, 2009. The Dry Dock Engine Works began manufacturing engines on Atwater Street in 1867; however, the earliest buildings used by the company were replaced by later buildings, built between 1892 and 1919.Klug, p. 22 These early structures were located throughout the city block owned by the company, and included a sheet metal works, boiler shop, forge, machine shop, and the Dry Dock Hotel.

The first ship to enter the dry dock was Dunelm, a cargo vessel that docked on 16 April 1911. The first passenger vessel was Hamonte, which docked on 29 July 1911. 1914 marked the launching of W. Grant Norden, later known as Donnacona, a vessel that was completely built at Western Dry Dock. W. Grant Norden was the largest Canadian-built freighter on the Great Lakes for 20 years.

Woolwich Dock, Sydney Woolwich Dock is a former dry dock and shipyard in Woolwich, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The site was purchased by Morts Dock and Engineering Company in 1898.

There were no personnel casualties or injuries reported. In 1994, Harry W. Hill was significantly damaged during a maneuver to re-float her and exit a dry dock. In the incident, she was caught by a gust of wind which caused the ship to smash into the dry dock.

Here the water was on average 8 fathoms (i.e. 48 feet) deep at 35 meters from the shore. Enough for ships to anchor, and for the dry dock to be lowered deeply enough to receive ships. The biggest asset of the shipyard would be Batavia Dock. This was a massive 354 feet long iron dry dock that was supposed to be able to lift most existing merchant ships.

What the Dutch government wanted, was to have a modern dry dock at Tanjung Priok. This required new capital that the public would not invest in the existing companies. In June 1890 it then made a deal that led to the establishment of the Droogdok Maatschappij Tandjong Priok (Tanjung Priok dry dock company). Part of the deal was that this company would lease Onrust Dock of 3,000 tons.

A Hero-class patrol vessel is readied for launch at Halifax Shipyard, 2013 In 1994, midway through the MCDV project, the shipyard's owners sold HDIL to Irving Shipbuilding Inc. of Saint John, New Brunswick who renamed the yard Halifax Shipyard Limited. In 1998, the shipyard purchased a replacement floating dry dock for the Scotiadock. The floating dry dock General Georges P Vanier was built by Canadian Vickers Ltd.

After the NIDM had been founded it negotiated a final contract with Raalte, Behrend and Co. In this October 1873 contract an equally innovative design by B.J. Tideman was adopted. At first only for Batavia Dock, later also for Volharding Dock. The contract demanded that the first dry dock (no matter which one) had to be ready near Batavia on 27 May 1875, the second dry dock on 10 October 1876.

Floating Dock. Woodcut from Venice (1560) The first early modern European and oldest surviving dry dock still in use was commissioned by Henry VII of England at HMNB Portsmouth in 1495 (see Tudor navy). This dry dock currently holds the world's oldest commissioned warship, HMS Victory. Possibly the earliest description of a floating dock comes from a small Italian book printed in Venice in 1560, called Descrittione dell'artifitiosa machina.

In the early nineteenth century some developments led to an urgent need for a dry dock in the Dutch East Indies. The size and length of ships made them ever more vulnerable to some of the undesired effects of careening. The practice of coppering ships made them more economical, but careening was very bad for the copper sheathing. Therefore the required regular inspection could only be done in a dry dock.

Kantzler Memorial Arboretum is an arboretum located in a plaza landscaped with plants maintained by civic and private organizations around the area.

During World War II, Le Croisic was home to a radar station for the Wehrmacht following the surrender of France and construction of the U-boat submarine pens at Saint-Nazaire, in order to protect the Loire estuary from enemy attack due to the Normandie dry dock at Saint-Nazaire that could be used to repair the large Kriegsmarine battleships such as the and its sister ship, . However, in the March 1942 St Nazaire Raid, a British Commando team on the obsolete and several motor launch boats were able to slip by the Le Croisic radar station and ram Campbeltown into the Normandie dry dock gate, before sabotaging other vital parts to the dry dock. Delayed action explosives on Campbeltown went off several hours after the night raid, destroying the dry dock gate and putting it out of commission until after WWII was over, with France liberated and Nazi Germany having surrendered to the Allied Powers.

Infinity joins her sister ships in experiencing recurrent problems with the pod-propulsion system throughout her operating history. Months following her delivery, Celebrity reported Infinity began experiencing problems with a faulty ball bearing in the ship's starboard propulsion unit, which necessitated an emergency dry dock in Victoria, British Columbia that resulted in cancelled sailings in June 2001. An unscheduled dry dock was held in April 2002 to continue repairing the ship's propulsion pods, as the pods were reportedly showing premature wear, which prevented the ship from operating at maximum cruising speed. In February 2003, in a third dry dock, Celebrity had all ball-bearing units on Infinity replaced, forcing the cancellation of two sailings.

Following the boom of shipbuilding on the Great Lakes during the Second World War, the Muir Dry Dock was closed down at Port Dalhousie, Ontario and operations were moved to the east side of the Welland Canal at Port Weller, Ontario in 1946. The drydock, opened in 1947, was initially owned by the Government of Canada and was used to store gates, lock valves, and gate-lifting vessels. The new site was considered an improvement over the Muir Dry Dock due to its location above Lock 1, which eliminated the need for pumps to fill or empty the dry dock. The yard was expanded to include ship repair and reconstruction work and employed 500 by 1950.

Her name was struck from the Naval Vessel Register on 25 February 1947, and she was sold to the Moore Dry Dock Company, Oakland, California, on 8 September 1947.

A shipyard and Customs House were built in 1834, a Watch House in 1836, and a Dry Dock in 1841. The shipyards were largely concerned with ship repair rather than shipbuilding, eventually closing in 1968, with the dry dock filled in a year later. The quay was connected to the railway network at Lancaster in 1883, by a 5 mile branch line that operated until the cessation of passenger services on 5 July 1930.

On the night of 31 January/1 February 1953, Sirdar was in dry dock at the naval dockyard at Sheerness, Kent when Sheerness was struck by the North Sea flood of 1953. Flood waters caused lock gates to fail, flooding the dry dock holding Sirdar and causing her to capsize. She was refloated and returned to service. Sirdar was eventually sold, and arrived at the yards of McLellen on 31 May 1965 for breaking up.

When the MBTA's Red Line was extended in the early 80's, much of the dirt removed for tunnels ended up filling in the piers shown in the 1958 aerial photo. On 7 August 1992 the Cunard luxury liner Queen Elizabeth 2 grounded on an uncharted rock in Vineyard Sound, south of Nashawena and Cuttyhunk Islands. The ship was repaired at Dry Dock Number 3, the only dry dock nearby capable of accommodating the QE2.

She had a gross tonnage of 486 tons and a net of 283 tons. She was powered by a triple expansion steam engine and two Scotch boilers, manufactured by the Dry Dock Engine Works, delivering 700HP.

When Onrust Dock of 5,000 tons had been assembled in the Dutch East Indies it was said to be meant for the two armored ships. The order for Onrust Dock of 5,000 tons can also be considered from the context of the Aceh War increasing the demand for dry dock capacity. Apart from this war there was the matter of replacing the 1843 wooden dry dock that still served in the East Indies.

The archaeological remains of the dry dock and wider site remain buried beneath what is now Mort Bay Park. The top of the stone walls of dry dock remains visible on the ground in the park. The caisson, and stone retailing walls remain in situ as do the ships bollards, and remnants of the patent slips and later container wharf. Both the archaeological and research potential of the site have been assessed as high.

U.S. Navy submarine in a graving dock A US Navy littoral combat ship in drydock, NASSCO 2012 A dry dock (sometimes dry-dock or drydock) is a narrow basin or vessel that can be flooded to allow a load to be floated in, then drained to allow that load to come to rest on a dry platform. Dry docks are used for the construction, maintenance, and repair of ships, boats, and other watercraft.

Steam paddle ships could only be careened after removal of the machinery and wheels, making regular inspection very costly. For screw steam ships the risk the risk of damaging the propeller shaft was too high to careen them. The absence of a dry dock led to the early loss of several ships of the Dutch navy. Ships that could have been repaired on time if a dry dock had been at hand.

She arrived in Devonport on 25 June. On 1 July 1918 Amethyst left Devonport for Barrow-in-Furness, where she went into dry dock for the remainder of the war.

Majesty of the Seas entered another dry-dock on 24 January 2018.

Dry Dock No. 4. View from North showing , first ship docked in completed Dry Dock No. 4 Beginning in 1938 and extending into the early 1940s, Navy Yard Puget Sound underwent major improvements, including the construction of 1,000' long Drydocks 4 and 5, which were sufficiently large for the new fast battleships then under construction. New quays, piers, and shop buildings were installed. Two double shipbuilding ways, no longer extant, were constructed for building escort vessels.

Launched on November 30, 1918, and completed in April 1919 by the Todd Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Company of Tacoma, Washington. It was rebuilt in 1930 at the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company in Newport News, Virginia.

Jacona was then towed by tug to Bucksport, Maine, to be put into service.

The repairs had been authorized without quotation and arguments of overpricing ensued. These repairs undertaken at the Morse Dry Dock and Repair Company of Brooklyn took place in their large sectional floating dry dock (see photo). The dock was the largest floating dock in the world, capable of lifting a long, 30,000 gross ton steamship, or two smaller ships simultaneously. No doubt Garvey would have wanted alternative arrangements for repair, but his hand was forced by circumstances.

Once better weather arrived she sailed to Brazil to be put into dry dock. She was escorted in by two ex-Royal Navy Type 22 frigates. Once in the dry dock, repairs took three weeks at a cost of £3 million. Deploying to the Caribbean in 1999 for counter narcotics and disaster relief duties, Northumberland seized over two tonnes of cocaine (with a street-value of £135 million), in cooperation with a United States Coast Guard law enforcement detachment.

The dry dock was long and wide. There was usually of water over the sill of the dry dock, depending on the level of Lake Superior. The dock pumped by two direct current pumps that could empty the dock in four hours, discharging 1,000,000 gallons per hour. The company had modern shops for mill work, pulp and paper machinery, general machine shop work, structural steel, power and heating, boilers and tanks, iron, and brass and aluminum castings.

Although it was subsequently raised, it was determined to be damaged beyond repair, so it was sold for scrap in 2012. The shipyard planned a replacement as part of its preparations for implementing the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy.CBC News – Sunken Halifax dry dock to be raisedCBC News – Sunken Irving dry dock to be replaced In 2013 Irving Shipbuilding started its $300-million modernization of the Halifax Shipyard to accommodate the building of vessels for the federal government.

In 1827, construction began on the first of what would be the first two dry docks in the United States. The first one was completed three weeks ahead of similar projects in both Boston, Massachusetts and South America, making it the first functional dry dock in the Americas. Dry Dock One, as it is referred to today, is still operational and is listed as historical landmark in Portsmouth, Virginia. Officer's Quarters A, B, and C were built about 1837.

225 Under Matsukata, Kawasaki Dockyards expanded its Hyōgo operations with a large dry dock, completed in 1902. This dry dock is now listed as an Important Cultural Property by the Japanese government. In 1906, after numerous technical difficulties, Kawasaki completed the first submarines made in Japan for the Imperial Japanese Navy. Kawasaki produced numerous warships for the Japanese navy, ranging from destroyers to aircraft carriers until the end of World War II.Spang, Japanese-German Relations. p.

On February 13, 2008, Alakai went into dry dock to make repairs to her auxiliary rudders that were damaged in late January. The dry docking was extended due to hull damage caused when a tugboat moving Alakai into dry dock lost power and collided heavily with the catamaran. Alakai returned to service in early April 2008 shortly after Aloha Airlines ended service. Before resuming service the ship went through sea trials and was re-certified by the Coast Guard.

In 2006, Statendam underwent dry dock renovations at Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport. In 2011, Statendam once again underwent dry dock renovations at Grand Bahama Shipyard in Freeport. In August 2013, Statendam was alerted by the Glacier Bay National Park ranger station that a nearby tour ship, , was stranded in the ice of Hopkins Glacier, and unable to continue to Glacier Bay National Park. On arrival Statendam lowered two lifeboats to rescue approximately 105 passengers and crew.

North Van Ship Repair, later known as Pacific Dry Dock was a shipyard in the city of North Vancouver, British Columbia which built many of the and Victory ships for Britain and Canada during World War II. Located just west of Lonsdale Avenue adjoining the Burrard Dry Dock, it was eventually absorbed into Burrard. The site was pulled down in the early 1980s and became the Lonsdale Quay and the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia (ICBC) building.

The solution for making a waterproof lock gate for a dry dock was the caisson or ship-door invented in France in 1683, but this solution was not applied. In 1737 an amount of water suddenly welled up near the doors, and in 1738 the same happened on the other side. There were some repairs, but these were not completely effective. The naval shipworm also played its part, and from 1737-1745 the dry dock gradually fell into disrepair.

It was a profitable venture for the government until 1925 when patronage declined due to the increase in vessel size. A more substantial facility was provided during the Second World War when the Cairncross Dock was established downstream. Nevertheless the South Brisbane Dry Dock was extremely busy during the war, necessitating additional wharfage and facilities. Though primarily a repair shop for Queensland government vessels, the South Brisbane Dry Dock remained viable for small government and commercial vessels.

South Brisbane Dry Dock was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992 having satisfied the following criteria. The place is important in demonstrating the evolution or pattern of Queensland's history. The South Brisbane Dry Dock is significant historically as rare surviving evidence of 19th century shipping activity along the South Brisbane Reach, and indicative of the massive scale of former riverside industry in Brisbane. The place demonstrates rare, uncommon or endangered aspects of Queensland's cultural heritage.

In reality Dry dock I faced many problems. Already in 1821 it was noted that lower terraces and foundations were getting pushed up. In 1826 a commission under J. Blanken started an investigation and advised to repair the dry dock for 59,297 guilders. In 1827 a contractor demanded 129,000 guilders to do the work, and so the repair was postponed. In 1829 a new estimate of 355,000 guilders was made. By 1830 the estimate had increased to 399,000.

The first four days of November were spent in the floating dry dock AFD-24 for repairs to the ship, most likely the damage caused by running aground at Leyte on 23 October. With its propellers and shafts removed to allow repairs, on 5 November the ship was towed from dry dock to the Destroyer Repair Base Dock at Hollandia. There she was moored starboard side to SC-744, which would be sunk within a month by a kamikaze at Leyte Gulf.Cressman, p.

In 1990, it entered the dry dock in Severodvinsk for upgrades and repairs. Due to both economic and technological problems, the completion was severely postponed. In 2000, work on the submarine was intensified. In June 2002, now serving in the Russian Navy, TK-208 finally left the Severodvinsk dry dock. After 12 years of overhaul and modifications, it had now received the name Dmitriy Donskoy, named after the Grand Duke of Moscow Dmitry Donskoy (1359–1389), the reputed founder of Moscow.

These gates control the water level in the basin so that it is not affected by the tide. Beyond the basin is the larger inner dock called the Bassin de Penhoët, which can accommodate ships up to 10,000 tons. There is also an old entrance to the Bassin de St Nazaire located southwest of the Normandie dry dock. Built to house the ocean liner , this dock was the largest dry dock in the world when it was completed in 1932.

She was stripped of upper masts, yards, deck-houses and ballast to lighten her before being towed from the East India Import Dock to the special dry dock at Greenwich. The skipper on this occasion was 83-year-old Captain C.E. Irving, who had sailed the world three times in her before he was 17. The river pilot was Ernest Coe. Thereafter the entrance tunnel to the dry dock was filled in, the river wall rebuilt and the work of re-rigging began.

Cockatoo Island dry dock in 1872 The dock was designed by Gother Kerr Mann, the island's Civil Engineer, and built between 1847 and 1857 utilising convict labour. The foundation stone of its ashlar lining was laid on 5 June 1854 by Governor Charles Augustus FitzRoy, with the dock being named in his honour. When completed in 1857, the dry dock was in length and in breadth, with an entrance wide. was the first sailing vessel to enter the dock in December 1857.

In the 1850s there were only two dry docks in the Dutch East Indies, both made of wood. Meanwhile the demand for dry dock capacity increased sharply. In the 1860s one of the first iron dry docks ever built appeared in the Dutch East Indies. It was the commercial iron dry dock for the shipping line of Cores de Vries, built by Randolph, Elder and Co. After being assembled in the Indies, she sunk during her trial in Surabaya in 1863.

In the 1840 this led to the construction of the Maritime Establishment (Dutch: Maritiem Etablissement) just east of the river. Center piece of the base were a wet dock called basin, where ships could attach to a quay, and a dry dock. From about 1909 the Dutch government then started the construction of a modern harbor known as the Port of Tanjung Perak (Dutch: Tandjong Perak). It also wanted to have a modern dry dock facility in the new harbor.

In 2018, she underwent dry dock with Damen Shiprepair in Amsterdam. In March 2020, CMV's operations were temporarily shut down, along with the rest of the cruise industry, to combat the spread of COVID-19 in the pandemic. By July 2020, CMV had entered administration.

The Greek author Athenaeus of Naucratis (V 204c-d) reports that the dry dock was invented in Ptolemaic Egypt in the reign of Ptolemy IV Philopator (221-204 BC) on the occasion of the launch of the enormous Tessarakonteres rowing ship: It has been calculated that a dock for a vessel of such a size might have had a volume of 750,000 gallons of water. In Roman times, a shipyard at Narni, which is still studied, may have served as a dry dock.

Coastal Dry Dock filed for bankruptcy in May 1986, and closed the following year. With the loss of Coastal Dry Dock, Brooklyn Navy Yard's revenue decreased by more than half. By 1987, the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation failed in all attempts to lease any of the six dry docks and buildings to any shipbuilding or ship-repair company. However, the Navy Yard did have 83 tenants and 2,600 employees, who generated a combined $2.7 million per year for the yard.

This used to be the shipyard's boiler room. The Pump Room explores the complexity of operating a shipbuilding dry dock. The pumps and engines in this room were used to drain the dry dock and move the dock's caisson gate. served as an on-site museum ship until 2016 The Kingston Drydock buildings were converted into a year-round museum in the 1970s; Canadian retired Coast Guard ship was decommissioned in 1985 and added to the site in 1986 as a museum ship.

In January 1921, he was suspended for two months after striking former Robins team mate Neil Clarke during the halftime of Erie's National Challenge Cup loss to Robins. Since Millar was unable to play for the remainder of the NAFBL season, Erie loaned him to Tebo Yacht Basin F.C. In May, Millar met up with Robins when Tebo defeated Dry Dock in the New York State Cup. Ironically, Robins Dry Dock and Tebo Yacht Basin were both subsidiary companies of Todd Shipyards.

In September 1689, shortly after his appointment as Assistant Surveyor he was ordered to report on the most suitable site for a single dry dock at Plymouth. He returned to London in November with details of three possible locations, including sites at Cattewater and Hamoaze, which is a section of the River Tamar, in the parish of Stoke Damerel, including estimates of the cost of building on each site, both in timber and stone. After some debate, the small inlet at Hamoaze was selected; the work was to be done in stone with a protective wet dock in front and, at the insistence of King Willam, the dry dock was made large enough to hold first-rate ships. At Devonport, Dummer was the designer of the first successful stepped stone dry dock in Europe.

They then announced themselves as ready for the construction of modern lake vessels. This company was incorporated as the Cleveland Shipbuilding Company in 1888 and later became the American Ship Building Company. Mr. Coffinberry was chosen president and financial manager; Mr. Wallace, vice-president and general superintendent; William M. Fitch, secretary, and James Wallace, designing engineer.

After Mr. Coffinberry's retirement, the Ship Owner's Dry Dock Co. was acquired by the Globe Shipbuilding Company in 1897. Eventually (1899) Globe Shipbuilding Company, Ship Owner's Dry Dock Company and Cleveland Ship Building Company were consolidated under the name American Ship Building Company. This was after M. A. Hanna acquired controlling interest in the companies. Henry D. Coffinberry was also a member of the first board of five commissioners of Cleveland, a director of the State Bank and a member of the Board of Industry of Cleveland.

Esquimalt, BC. On Sunday, December 16, 1888, Olympian was placed in the dry dock at Esquimalt, British Columbia to have the hull scraped clean of marine growth which impeded its speed. It was difficult to get the steamer into the drydock; part of the paddle box on one side had to be removed. The Esquimalt dry dock was chosen as the better alternative to running the steamer south to San Francisco. The work on the steamer required 125 men, and was estimated to cost $4,000.

Over the next two years, BIW repaired the ship in unique fashion. The guided missile frigate was towed to the company's dry dock in Portland, Maine, and put up on blocks, where the damaged engine room was cut out of the ship. Meanwhile, workers in Bath built a 315-ton replacement, and the module was floated south to Portland, placed on the dry dock, slid into place under the frigate, jacked up, and welded into place. In 1995, Bath Iron Works was bought by General Dynamics.

Lovji Nusserwanjee Wadia (1702–1774) was a Parsi from Surat province of Gujarat in India and was a member of the Wadia family of shipwrights and naval architects, who founded Wadia Group in 1736. Lovji Wadia secured contracts with the British East India Company to build ships and docks in Bombay in 1736. This, and subsequent efforts, would result in Bombay becoming one of the most strategically important ports for the British in Asia. The Bombay dry- dock, the first dry-dock in Asia, was built by Lovji and his brother Sorabji in 1750.

One of the special circumstances at the launch was that Batavia Dock did not have a keel, and therefore lay on two 'rails', instead of one. The launch took place without the towers being connected, so one can doubt that a successful would have meant that the dry dock would have been operational before the end of the year. Preparations were made to launch Batavia Dock on 25 January 1877. The steamers Amboina and Batavia had been chartered to pull the dry dock from the slipway at seven o'clock in the morning.

The St. George Steam Packet Company bid 45,000 pounds for a monthly Cork-Halifax service including Sirius and 65,000 pounds for a monthly Cork-Halifax-New York service. Great Western also bid a monthly Bristol-Halifax-New York service. However, the Admiralty rejected both bids because neither company offered fortnightly service in their bid response and the contract was finally awarded to Cunard. In late 1840 Sirius was sent to Gibson's Dry Dock at Hull for new boilers, but remained there over two years as the dry dock had to be specially lengthened.

She was used to haul bulk cargoes such as iron ore, coal, grain, salt and later automobiles. In June 1888 the Cambria ran aground southwest of Peninsula Point Light on Lake Michigan with a cargo of iron ore weighing 2,334 tons. The grounding tore a hole in her hull. The Lakeland as a passenger steamer circa 1915 In 1910 the Cambria was taken to the Milwaukee Dry Dock Company to be converted to a passenger vessel, but the Milwaukee Dry Dock Company was unable to complete the conversion.

The Moore Dry Dock Sea Panther, renamed Mormacstar, got renamed again to Mormacsea. To truly confuse matters the Moore Dry Dock Sea Panther duplicated the name of MC hull 40 launched by Federal Shipbuilding of New Jersey that became with a later ship, MC hull 390 built in Mississippi, also being named Sea Panther. Pacific coast interests had been pressing the Maritime Commission to begin awarding contracts for new shipbuilding programs to Pacific yards. The launch of Sea Arrow was seen as the beginning of a revival of the industry.

Olympian drew much more water than other steamers on the Columbia River, and as a result the large steamer was essentially limited to the run on the lower Columbia from Portland to Astoria. When Olympian arrived in Puget Sound, no dry dock or other facility existed in Oregon or Washington large enough to accommodate the vessel for repair. Oregon Rwy and Nav. Co. planned to steam the vessel south to San Francisco, California to be placed on a dry dock for repairs, including hull scrapping, caulking, and repainting.

She left Montevideo on 5 September 1940 to sail to Simon's Town, South Africa for a refit. Before she could make use of the dry dock, it was occupied by the aircraft carrier , which was undergoing repairs after having been damaged in a collision with a merchant ship. Hawkins was diverted to Durban where she spent seven weeks waiting before she was able to dock in the Selborne dry dock at Simonstown. Hawkins also rescued nine of the crew from the tanker , which had been torpedoed off Freetown by the .

In 1903 the Morse Works completed its floating dry dock. The company's principle asset, and worth several hundred thousand dollars, it was at time of completion the world's only electrically- equipped floating dock, as well as being the first fitted with centrifugal pumps, the first powered by A/C induction motors and the first with an auxiliary pumping system. The 15,000-ton capacity facility would later prove itself capable of lifting three times the annual tonnage of any other floating dock in the country."30,000-Ton Dry Dock Works Well", The Rudder, February 1920, pp.

"Work at the Morse Dry Dock", The Rudder, January 1919, pp. 13-14. By March 1919, the first three sections were ready and were put to use for the first time in lifting the steamer Black Arrow out of the water, at the rate of one foot per minute. When completed in late 1919, the six-section dock was the largest floating dry dock in the world,"New York the Nation's Ship Repair Plant", The Rudder, December 1919, p. 569. capable of lifting a ship long and weighing 30,000 tons.

The Fleetwood-Knight was a Canadian automobile built in Kingston, Ontario by the Davis Dry Dock Company in 1923. The Davis Dry Dock Company had an excellent reputation for the quality of their yachts, launches and lifeboats, and company owner John Davis wanted to build a car to the same high standards. The prototype was going to be built as a tourer, but Davis's son Lloyd took over development of the car and made it into a sedan. The prototype was nearly finished when it was damaged in a fire.

On 17 August the De Ruyter arrived in Hellevoetsluis towed by the Cycloop. When the bow and the stern of the De Ruyter were removed in Hellevoetsluis, not a single piece of rotten wood was found, something ascribed to the good quality of the wood and to the long original construction time (laid down in 1831). On 18 September 1861 the De Ruyter was launched for the second time when the dry dock of Hellevoetsluis was filled with water. She left the dry dock and work continued in Hellevoetsluis.

Using some of the proceeds, Holer, with a partner, bought part of the Harry Oakes estate in Niagara Falls on which to build an animal attraction for Niagara tourists, doing some of the building himself.

A 767-200ER of its launch customer, El Al. The -200ER externally similar to the -200 The 767-200ER was the first extended-range model and entered service with El Al in 1984. The type's increased range is due to extra fuel capacity and higher maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) of up to . The additional fuel capacity is accomplished by using the center tank's dry dock to carry fuel. The non-ER variant's center tank is what is called cheek tanks; two interconnected halves in each wing root with a dry dock in between.

Admiral Laurence E. Power, who had replaced Somerville as the fleet commander, detached Richelieu for a refit. The British had initially offered the floating dry-dock AFD-23, but Merveilleux du Vignaux believed that the dry-dock would not be able to accommodate a vessel the size of his ship (he proved to be correct when on 8 August, AFD-23 capsized with Valiant aboard). Richelieu left on 6 September, bound for Algiers with three escorting destroyers. Le Terrible and Le Fantasque took over escort duties after Richelieu passed through the Suez Canal, and on 23 September the three ships arrived in Algiers.

Repairs due to the collision and to the heavy weather, as well as the owner's repairs were all carried out at the same time. Ten of the fifty days in dry dock were allocated to the repair of the collision damage and the question for the House of Lords was whether the owners of the Carslogie were liable for that ten-day loss of earning capacity. The claim was for damages because a working ship is "a profit-earning machine". If she ceases to earn a profit, it is essential to consider what caused the detention in dry dock at that time.

Cutty Sark, a noted British clipper. Clipper ship Southern Cross leaving Boston Harbor, 1851, by Fitz Hugh Lane Among the most notable clippers were the China clippers, also called tea clippers or opium clippers, designed to ply the trade routes between Europe and the East Indies.

Damaged by fire on 21 May 2007 while undergoing conservation, the ship was permanently elevated three metres above the dry dock floor in 2010 as part of a plan for long-term preservation.

The project was suspended because of a dispute with the contractor and a lack of funds to erect the bridge, but in 1923 the State of Connecticut appropriated $350,000 to complete the project. Only two bids for the bridge's erection were placed, the first by Bridgeport Dry Dock and Dredging for $326,575 and the second by C. W. Blakeslee and Sons for $389,492 with estimations varying based on extra work needed. Bridgeport Dry Dock and Dredging won the contract and the materials were shipped to Bridgeport, with work beginning mid-1924. The completed bridge included an operator's house and a public toilet building.

Some dry docks are used during the construction of bridges, dams, and other large objects. For example, the dry dock on the artificial island of Neeltje-Jans was used for the construction of the Oosterscheldekering, a large dam in the Netherlands that consists of 65 concrete pillars weighing 18,000 tonnes each.

In 1773 he introduced steam technology from Scotland to pump water from the dry dock at Kronstadt a full 26 years before the British Admiralty were persuaded to try out a steam engine at Portsmouth. It was his insistence on the use of a steam engine pump which had a significant impact on the growth of interest of steam application to all facets of Russian industrial life. Glendenning.

A postcard showing the amidships portion of Iéna, with charred and scorched paint prominent On 4 March 1907 Iéna was moved into Dry dock No. 2 in the Missiessy Basin at Toulon to undergo maintenance of her hull as well as an inspection of her rudder shaft. Eight days later, beginning at 13:35 and continuing until 14:45, a series of explosions began near the aft 100-millimetre magazines which devastated the ship and the surrounding area. The explosions blew the roofs off three nearby workshops and gutted the area between the aft funnel and the aft turret. Because the ship was in a dry dock with the water pumped out, it was initially impossible to flood the magazines, which had not been unloaded before docking.

Noma docked in San Francisco in 1915 Noma was a large steam yacht, designed by Tams, Lemoine & Crane and built by the Burlee Dry Dock Co. of Staten Island, New York, Yard No. 235, and launched on 11 February 1902. She was built for William Bateman Leeds, the "Tin Plate King", who had married Nonnie May Stewart Worthington in 1900 and the following year sold his tin-plate business to US Steel for $40 million. The yacht measured when built, with a lengths of (pp) and (oa), a beam of , and a draught of . Noma's two 4-cylinder triple expansion steam engines, also made by Burlee Dry Dock, totalled 518 nhp, drove twin screws and gave her a speed of 19 knots.

CSS Shenandoah under repair in Williamstown The Confederate States Navy warship CSS Shenandoah, which had successfully attacked several Union ships in the Indian Ocean, sailed into Hobsons Bay on the afternoon of 25 January 1865. Captain J. I. Waddell said he only wanted to put the ship onto the Williamstown slip for repairs, and to take on food and water. The Shenandoah was forced to wait while the Australians decided if letting the raider into their harbours violated their neutrality. As the only 2 dry docks belonged to the crown, it was decided to rent a dry dock to a private firm who allowed the ship to dry dock, thereby putting the responsibility on the private firm whilst keeping Australia's neutrality.

After the last enlargement, the company was able to dock the largest ships which visited the Finnish harbours. As the dry dock alone was not enough to meet the demand, the company considered building another similar one or a floating dry dock. The first option was ruled out due to cost reasons, and the second one due to lack of suitable place next to the area. Therefore, the company ended up to replace an 1886-built cradle by a larger one with 1,500 tonnes capacity. The 1907–1908 built new cradle was a significant investment, costing nearly 350,000 marks. Ship repair capabilities were further enhanced by introduction of welding in 1906 and investments on machinery, including two large lathes in 1908.

In addition to the dry docks in King George, Alexandra, and William Wright Docks, there were dry docks on the sides of the River Hull. Hull Central Dry Dock (also known as South End Dock) on the west bank of the River Hull near to its outfall onto the Humber Estuary Hull Central Dry Dock (disused) was the largest, being long with an entrance of , the dock having been extended several times. Built in 1843 and later extended, the dock has been disused since 1992 and is now a Grade II listed structure.Old Town (Southern part), section 14.13, p. 20 In September 2013 the City Council approved plans by Watergate Developments Ltd to turn the dock into an open-air entertainment venue.

The Western Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Company was a shipyard that operated at Port Arthur, Ontario, now part of Thunder Bay, on Lake Superior from 1911 to 1993. The shipyard was established in 1909 and renamed in 1916 as the Port Arthur Shipbuilding Company.Port Arthur Daily News, 14 October 1909. The yard closed in 1993.

The company's premises are situated in Naantali, Finland. The dry dock is 265 metres long, 70 metres wide and 7.9 metres deep. The company has also a 101 metres long and 21.6 metres wide floating dock with 4000-tonne capacity and quay which is 184 metres long. The maximum crane capacity is 150 tonnes.

The most important Romanian shipyard was at Galați, followed by the one at Constanța and finally the ones at Severin and Brăila. Galați benefited of the country's only dry dock, built in 1937. It also had two floating docks which could lift 200 and 300 tons respectively. The entire facility employed 500–800 people.

The Dutch population was interned in camps, meaning that the company was severely hit. After some years the Japanese finally succeeded in lifting Tanjung Priok Dock of 4,000 tons. It's not known whether the Japanese actually used the dry dock. After only a short period she was then sunk again by Indonesian independence fighters.

In 2002, Buffalo entered dry-dock in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, and became the first ship to undergo the multi-year nuclear refueling process in Hawaii. In late November 2005, the DDS was used to launch an underwater glider capable of gathering and storing information to be later transmitted using a built-in satellite phone.

E. H. Wootan in command.

The power station was added to the plans during construction. This was not the most obvious way to supply power to the dry dock, because a power station on land could be used for multiple purposes, e.g. powering two drydocks. Anyway the power station consisted of three big Diesel generators supplied by Mirrlees, Bickerton & Day.

She was used to haul bulk cargoes such as iron ore, coal and grain. She was also one of the first vessels to load iron ore in Two Harbors, Minnesota when the port opened in 1884. The George Spencer in dry dock In 1888 the Spencer was sold to B.L. Pennington (Lockwood Taylor & Company).

USS San Francisco in dry dock in Guam in January 2005, following its collision with an uncharted seamount. The damage was extensive and the submarine was just barely salvaged. Some seamounts have not been mapped and thus pose a navigational danger. For instance, Muirfield Seamount is named after the ship that hit it in 1973.

On 30 October 1912 the ships arrived in Sabang, Aceh, the first harbor in the Dutch East Indies. On 19 November 1912 they arrived in Surabaya. The voyage of 9,000 sea miles set a distance record for towing a dry dock with one tug. The voyage was interesting enough to be covered in some detail.

The original plan was that the new harbor of Surabaya would be ready in 1913, but that did not happen. Therefore, the dry dock company did not sent the machines for the planned repair shipyard (estimated at 250,000 guilders) to Surabaya. Surabaya Dock of 3,500 tons was anchored offshore, instead of in the new harbor.

In October 1971, the small dry dock was returned to the United States Navy and laid up at Guam. On 1 January 1973, she was reactivated and served at various advanced Pacific bases. She remained in this status through 1980. During this period of service, AFDL-7 was named Ability on 7 June 1979.

These would prove to be far more extensive than planned. Especially those on the machines, that would be finished only on 18 March 1862. Nevertheless, the Wassenaar left the old dry dock only on 5 June 1862, after 7.5 months! Still another year later, in October 1863, there was news about work on the Wassenaar.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coatings are non-biocidal, leaving the ocean species unharmed. The basis of these elastomers is fouling-release: the prevention of organic substrate adhesion. This is accomplished due to the non-polarity, and more importantly low surface energy of PDMS. Consequently, the mechanical strength is weak, limiting efficiency and increasing dry-dock time.

The Navy partially built a 107-m long frigate in the dry dock in Malabo. The frigate was commissioned on June 3, 2014 by president Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo and named after the Wele-Nzas Province.

In June 1847 construction of the dry dock started. Judging from the above false start with only European timber, this was probably a restart of construction. The plans for construction were loosely followed. A big difference was that the local shipbuilders thought that the drydock would last longer because of the use of teak.

Winfield 2007, p. 358Syrett 1988, pp.6768 Seven days later she was brought into Deptford Dockyard where she was renamed Elephant and placed in a dry dock for fitting- out and for copper sheathing of her hull. As built, Elephant was long with an keel, a beam of , and a roomy hold depth of .

Shipyard of the NIDM on Amsterdam Island in 1876 In 1871 plans were made for what would later become the Nederlands Indische Droogdok Maatschappij (NIDM) or Netherlands Indies Drydock Company. The plan was to found two complete repair shipyards, including smithy, carpentry etc. One repair shipyard would service Batavia, the other Surabaya. Each would include a dry dock.

By 1842, approximately of grain were stored on the island. Later, quarrying on the island provided stone for construction projects around Sydney, including the seawall for Circular Quay. Between 1847 and 1857, convicts were used to dig the Fitzroy Dock, Australia's first dry dock, on the island. An estimated of rock was excavated with forming the dock itself.

The ship became becalmed and the captain procured a tow from the Indian Coast Guard. They were towed to the city of Cochin in Kerala State, India. After a month at sea, the boat was befouled with algae and barnacles. It was taken to dry dock, scraped, and coated with chunam, a mixture of goat fat and lime.

Repairs were completed on 28 February 1940, and Kelly returned to the fray. Astonishingly, she was involved in a collision with just two days later on 2 March, necessitating a further 8 weeks in dry dock, this time on the Thames. She was released on 27 April, in time to assist with the evacuation of allied forces from Namsos.

In Danish, she is known as simply Fregatten Jylland, although several ships have used this name. The restoration efforts were completed in 1994 and she is on permanent display in dry dock at the town of Ebeltoft, Denmark. A commemorative coin was issued by the National Bank of Denmark. Jylland is the last surviving screw frigate.

On 10 November 2007 an explosion occurred in the ship's hull during routine maintenance in a San Diego dry dock. Six workers were injured, one of them critically.

She serviced Australia and New Zealand for the next twelve and a half years, with occasional service to Canada and the United States. The Australia run was an instant success, and 1951, Johan van Oldenbarnevelt was put into dry-dock in Amsterdam for refitting. She was refitted as a one-class ship with berths for 1,414 passengers.

Arson was suspected, but no suspects were ever arrested. In 1958 Johan van Oldenbarnevelt was refitted again, reducing her berths to 1,210. The Amsterdam Dry Dock Company completed the refit in three months at a cost of A$800,000. Three luxury suites were added, as well as a nightclub, cinema, gift shop, promenade lounge and second swimming pool.

The Army Corps of Engineers made extensive riverside improvements, including adding dry-dock and boat repair facilities.

Slipways are used to launch (newly built) large ships, but can only dry-dock or repair smaller ships. Pulling large ships against the greased ramp would require too much force. Therefore, for dry-docking large ships, one must use carriages supported by wheels or by roller-pallets. These types of dry- docking installations are called "marine railways".

By 2009 the four US ships had been received at the site together with the former French aircraft carrier Clemenceau were sealed inside the dry dock, which was drained, and the ships scrapped. Other constructions decommissioned at the same time included the former jacket of an installation from the North West Hutton Oilfield. Dismantling work was completed in 2011.

When the Carthaginan made port in Hilo, LRF representatives met the ship and made Thompson an offer to purchase it. Following the brief return voyage to California, Carthaginian sailed from San Diego on August 4, 1966, and returned to Lahaina in January 1967, where it was converted into a whaling ship museum and tourist attraction with Thompson serving as Captain and Curator. Thompson left in 1968, and LRF declared it would be maintained as a working vessel, making an annual trip to dry dock on Oahu under a volunteer crew. Carthaginian was destroyed after it ran aground on the Lahaina Reef on Easter Sunday 1973 (April 22, 1973) while sailing to dry dock at Oahu, and another ex-Baltic Sea cargo schooner, later renamed Carthaginian II, was acquired to replace it later in 1973.

The St Nazaire Raid or Operation Chariot was a British amphibious attack on the heavily defended Normandie dry dock at St Nazaire in German-occupied France during the Second World War. The operation was undertaken by the Royal Navy and British Commandos under the auspices of Combined Operations Headquarters on 28 March 1942. St Nazaire was targeted because the loss of its dry dock would force any large German warship in need of repairs, such as , sister ship of , to return to home waters by running the gauntlet of the Home Fleet of the Royal Navy and other British forces, via the English Channel or the GIUK gap. The obsolete destroyer , accompanied by 18 smaller craft, crossed the English Channel to the Atlantic coast of France and was rammed into the Normandie dock gates.

2 Dry Dock) and 1965 (No. 3 Dry Dock). During this period Yarrow was involved in the Type 12I Leander-class frigate programme as well as the for the Chilean Navy and the design of the for the Indian Navy. The long-term investment in facilities and strong manufacturing credentials, combined with the development of the Yarrow Admiralty Research Department (YARD) ensured that when the number of warship yards was dramatically reduced by the Navy in the 1970s, Yarrows was chosen as one of mainstream contractors alongside Swan Hunter, Vosper (for the Type 21s) and Cammell Laird. The Type 21 was the first type in the Navy to be a combined Gas Turbine and Diesel design, using the marine variant of the Rolls Royce Olympus gas turbine (also used in Concorde).

Polly Woodside was closed to the public on 30 April 2006 to allow for the major redevelopment of the lower Yarra River's southern bank.

Buffalo conducted the first-ever dual Selected Restricted Availability, sharing a dry- dock with the USS Los Angeles (SSN-688) in 1998, followed by an Eastern Pacific deployment that included special Joint Operations with the United States Coast Guard and Canadian Coast Guard, for which she was awarded the Coast Guard Special Operations Ribbon. In 1999, she conducted another Western Pacific deployment, earning the Battle "E" again, which occurred again in 2001.

The decision required the dockyard to move from its original location, which was too constricted, to a new (adjacent) site to the north. (The old site was in due course transferred to the Ordnance Board, who established the gun wharf there.) By 1619, the new dockyard consisted of a new dry dock and wharf with storehouses, all enclosed within a brick perimeter wall. The growing importance of the dockyard was illustrated with the addition soon afterwards of a mast pond, and the granting of additional land on which a second (double) dry dock was constructed, along with a sail loft, a ropery and residences for the dockyard officers: all of which were completed by 1624. Peter Pett, of the family of shipwrights whose history is closely connected to the Chatham dockyard, became commissioner in 1649.

Opened in 1892 by the Department of Public Works as a repair facility for lake vessels,Kingston Dry Dock, Directory of Designations of National Historic Significance of Canada the drydock provided dry working access to the ship below the waterline.

Following that, the Blue Crew refitted the boat and executed Patrol 59. On 30 January 1986, while moored alongside the large auxiliary floating dry dock , Lafayette suffered serious damage during high winds.

The final voyage of many Victorian ships was with the final letter of their name chipped off. In the 1930s, it became cheaper to 'beach' a boat and run her ashore as opposed to using a dry dock. The ship would have to weigh as little as possible and run ashore at full speed. Dismantling operations required a rise of tide and close proximity to a steel- works.

Inside the tunnel Each of the seven tunnel sections weighs , is long, wide and rises to a height of . In total, the bridge–tunnel is long. The tunnel was built with sections prefabricated in dry dock and then sunk in the river, below the surface of the water. It is one of the largest prestressed concrete structures in the world and is the longest bridge-tunnel in Canada.

The bridges can cause traffic delays during high tides, though river traffic is less than it once was. The Beverley and Barmston Drain rejoins the river above Scott Street Bridge. Below North Bridge, an unused dry dock on the west bank marks the former entrance to Queens Dock. Below Drypool Bridge, a muddy basin on the east bank was once the entrance to Drypool Basin and Victoria Dock.
