ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a method and apparatus for installing a dock in which an elongated jig having legs at one end is located out over the water and slidable guide means on the apparatus are located at a point where it is desired to locate pilings. Pilings are lifted into position within the piling guide means and jetted downwardly into the surface below the water by means of an internal passageway. After they have had an opportunity to set, the jig is removed and the precast concrete platform is lifted out over the water and supported at one end by the installed piling means.
