APPLICATION SHEETRock and Block Placement
TRIMBLE MARINE CONSTRUCTION SOFTWARE
Trimble Marine Construction software improves productivity and efficiency inunderwater construction applications. It provides accurate 3D visualization toassist the operator with underwater construction tasks.
Accurate placement

Real time seafloor and design

Trimble Marine Construction software for armor
rock and block placement applications is a
powerful tool to help construction contractors
improve productivity and efficiency. The
operator has a real time view of the excavator,
crane and barge in plan and profile views.
Profile displays show tool depth along with thesurveyed and design depths.

Up/down indicators show the operator
the exact distance to the design surface
continuously. The software supports complex
3D designs.

Real time visualization and monitoring
Real time views of the machine in plan andprofile views display the block or grapple,
design depths and color-coded Digital Terrain
Model (DTM). The DTM highlights the highand low spots relative to the design and is
updated in real time, tracking the progress ofthe construction project. The surface is updated
in real time based on the block or materialplaced and the material’s characteristics. The
sonar option can scan after placement for amore precise surface updates and greater
quality control.

TRANSFORMING THE WAY THE WORLD WORKS

Workflows
The software makes it easy to select block
designs and monitor the block placement
process. Block position is calculated by thecrane’s position and measuring the angle andpay out of the hoisting wires. If the wire is notvertical due to tide or current, a laser can beadded for improved positioning.

Customizable interface
Multiple monitors with independent layouts
can be tailored to the needs of the operator. A
color-coded plan view and 3D view highlights
surface high and low spots. The surface Digital
Terrain Model (DTM) is updated in real timeregistering construction progress showing
depth, differential and production models.
