Question Should I purchase a stationary or floating dock? Answer Depending on personal preference and site conditions, Tiger Docks can help you decide what type of dock for you would work best. Question How long will my wood dock last? Answer Wood docks generally last between 20-25 years, when well maintained. Question What is the difference between a Steel and Wood Frame dock? Answer A wood frame dock is the preferred choice for most residential sites whereas, a steel frame dock has a variety of decking material to choose from including; wood, composite, or concrete panels. Also, steel docks are the best docks to choose if you are thinking of installing a roof system. Question Can I leave a floating dock in all year long? Answer Depending on your specific site conditions, we can help to determine if your floating dock can be left in throughout the year or if it needs to be pulled out due to ice or other elements. Question What is the difference between a Floating Dock and a Pier? Answer A floating dock floats in the water and maintains the dry area between the water and the base of the dock. A pier is stationed into the ground, under the water. This enables the dock to fluctuate with the water. Question Can I put a roof on my dock? Answer Steel docks are the preferred dock if you are considering adding a roof system to your dock. Question How do I figure the adequate flotation for my dock? Answer There are many factors that complicate the below formulas. Factors such as additional loads applied to the dock, ramp, structure, table and storage boxes may require increase support but a general rule of thumb is:
Residential - 30 pounds per square foot
Commercial - 40 pounds per square foot
Example: Using 2436-20 float drums (support 440 pounds each)
Residential: 8' w x 11' l = 88 square feet x 30 pounds per square foot = 2,640 pounds of flotation needed. 2,640 pounds divided by 440 pounds (support of the drum) = 6 float drums
Commercial: 8' w x 11' l = 88 square feet x 40 pounds per square foot = 3,520 pounds of flotation needed. 3,520 pounds divided by 440 pounds (support of the drum) = 8 float drums
Generally, you will round up the number of floats needed to the nearest even number. Question Where should you place the floats? Answer A general rule of thumb is to place the floats around the perimeter of the dock. Finger Docks generally require additional flotation at the end of the dock to reduce deflection. Question What kind of anchoring do I need? Answer Depending on your site conditions, several types of anchoring can be used, including; cables, winches, underwater chain anchors, and spud poles.
