In time to the „Warnemuender Woche 2011“the new floating pontoons of the yacht harbour Mittelmole in Warnemunde was handed over for use. The final completion will be intended with the installation of the gangway after the reconstruction of the quay wall in August 2011.

The new pier consisting of 5 floating concrete pontoons (20 x 3 x 1.3 m, freeboard of approx. 60 cm) is anchored on 10 piles. Along with 10 fingers, 40 new berths for boats up to 20 m have been created which are equipped with power – as well as potable water supply. Both the fender and the decking of the fingers are made of larch wood.

In the connection of the complete redevelopment of the building yard of the Waterways and Shipping Office Bremen in Brake, two floating concrete platforms with an area of 300 m² were designed, manufactured and installed by Clement.

The overall construction time was about 6 months. Each platform consists of 7 single elements which are connected by Clement’s patented technology for reinforced concrete beams. The 14 single elements (10.58 x 4.04 x 2.12 m) had been manufactured in Rostock and transported by truck to Brake. The pontoons were casted on site. For the construction of the reinforced concrete beams 9.3 tons of construction steel as well as 59 m³ of concrete have been installed on site.

The pontoons are used as landing stage as well as platform for carrying out ship maintenance and repair works.

A floating terrace for the fish restaurant „Fischtempel“(fish temple) in the fishery port of Travemuende was completed and handed over in May 2011. The floating platform with the size of 9x15 m made of 3 single elements of 15 x 3 x 1.3 m has been produced by use of Clement’s patented reinforced concrete beams that are connected rigidly.

For casting the reinforced concrete beams (approx. 6.5 m³ of concrete) a tube length of more than 60 m was required for the concrete pump as the recently reconstructed quay wall was not accessible by truck. In the future the roofing of the floating terrace as well as the replacement of the access pontoons made of wood will be intended.

For the construction of a „Wasserwanderrastplatz“ (water-hiking-resting-place) at the lake Warnow, the concrete pontoon with the size of 20 x 2.5 x 1 m was already manufactured and supplied to Papendorf at the end of 2010. As the construction site has not been accessible for large equipment, the pontoon was towed upriver from the sea port of Rostock and supplied by waterway.

The week of delivery (47. Calendar week) has been fixed in particular consideration of the nature reservce “Unteres Warnowtal”; the special requirement in terms of the tug boat to be used has been met as well. Along with the installation of the slip roller for canoes in spring 2011 and after completion of the landside facilities, the concrete pontoon was finally handed over for use.
