ABSTRACT:
A concrete dock section has a polyfoam billet coating having sides and bottom coated with a fiberglass-cement mixture, and a top surface having a plurality of transverse channels. A concrete dock surface is poured over the channels which have a steel through rod centered in each. The top surface of the billet extends slightly over the billet sides and the concrete deck edges extend downward to engage the extended top surface. The deck section is made by coating the billet in an inverted position, placing the billet in a pouring collar the top surface of the billet, installing the through rods, and pouring concrete to the top of the pouring collar.
