Atlantic & Pacific Locks
Major differences
• Use of existing 1939 excavations for New Locks
• Geology (Sandstone vs. Basalt)
• Excavation, slope protection & rock restitution
• Availability of concrete aggregate at Atlantic
• Seismic criteria / Fault zones
• Lock floor slabs
• Borinquen dams / Approach channels

Challenge the future
Lock chamber components
For each type a structural model was identified for the design
Lock Head
Lock Walls with
central connection
Typical

23 monoliths per side per chamber
7 types of structural Lock Walls
Several loads combinations
