Promenades

01 - Rotating Access Bridges (slideshow)


To enable movement through the market by stalls and other boats, there are four rotating bridges located on key promenades (see plans) - here a recently refurbished market stall departs the dock adjacent to the Innovation Dock building.

Structural Approaches

Framing

Example of aluminium space frame, here used to construct an Antarctic research station. As shown above, this approach is used to frame the market stalls.

The interlinked timber frame here provides a strong yet relatively lightweight superstructure.


Hub and Anchor Node Foundations


Spencer Dock Bridge, 2009, Amanda Levete Architects. This road bridge uses sculptural concrete piers to anchor to the bed of the dock, highlighting that aesthetics apply to even the base elements. The project can borrow foundation techniques developed for the offshore turbine industry, including piled and gravity approaches.


Promenade Buoyancy


The fixed floating elements of the project (promenades) will integrate existing pontoon techniques into the overall structure. Here precast concrete pontoons are used for a house construction. Steel pontoons are another approach as seen here. This also highlights the need to anchor the floating pontoons to the dockside or bed, using foundations that allow the structures to rise and fall with changes in water levels.
