Abstract: |
Monitoring of an investigation trench prior to commencement of bridge building works as part of the third crossing project at the south quay of the inner harbour in lowestoft. The trench was excavated to understand how the quay frontage was anchored in place. The trench revealed concrete building footings in the northeast corner. Also revealed were sheet pile anchors driven into the silt and iron tie rods that held the quay frontage in place. An iron water pipe was also exposed and was probably a drain or outflow.
Other deposits represented backfilling episodes, levelling and the construction of the concrete hardstanding. |
