Replacing Orthodox Bridge With New Innovation
FLOATING STRUCTURE
Height of jetty is independent of sea level while in concrete’s jetty height vary according to sea level so in case of low level stairs are required to access
the boat.

Modular Floating Dock System Modular Floating Jetty System started from 1989 and has been developed and applied to numerous
engineering constructions for many years up to date.

In contrast to the other modular floating systems which are based on the “first generation model” - cubes with flat vertical sides - a concept that has been in the market for the last twenty to thirty years, MAGIC FLOAT’S RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT team, responding to 21st century’s call for more robust systems, able to withstand the rigors of the marine environment, has invented the structural configuration of the system’s basic building block - the cube - which does just that.
Why Magic Float?

03. Reinforced Connection Points
The cubes’ 4 interconnection protrusions (ears) consist of solid 20mm thick HDPE with a certified breaking limit of 2,400 kg each.

Environmental Friendly Materials
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MATERIALS
The essence of Magic Float lies in the material it is composed of, which does not biodegrade with the passage of time. In other words the material is environmentally neutral, meaning that it is not effected by, nor does it effect the water environment where it is used, whether salt or fresh water, being also exceptionally durable to sunlight radiation.
Besides HDPE, any metal accessories used are composed entirely of stainless steel, material which is as well exceptionally durable and neutral in the marine environment.
The use of wood to pave mobile stainless steel frame gangways, used to access the floating structures from land, refers to natural organic material.

Advantages of Magic Float
ENDURANCE High density polyethylene remains unaffected from seawater, oxidation,
solar radiation (UV), chemicals and oils.
VARIABILITY Any Magic Float configuration can be quickly altered, involving labor of
only two people. The ease with which change in shape and all three dimensions can occur, as well as size expansion or reduction, is unparalleled when compared to conventional non modular systems.
MODULARITY = UNSURPASSED MOBILITY After disconnection from its mooring lines, the systems’ modular design
gives it the ability to divide in smaller units, that can then be easily and costlessly transferred by hand from sea to shore and vice versa, without the need of having to use cranes or other lifting and carrying equipment.

Magic Float products are continuously tested in the most extreme conditions, to prove their endurance and reliability.

STRUCTURAL STRENGTH
WIND SPEED AND WAVE HEIGHT
Analysis results shows that magic float can withstand under wind speed of 250km/hr and wave height of 2.41m of single layer of magic float.
Capacity may be further achieved by increasing layers.
Note: Detail description of test specimen and loading condition are available in strength assessment report which may be provided on demand.
