English: Title: Preparatory phase for the construction of Surabaya Dock
Description: Yard number 117, floating dry dock, built by Nederlandsche Scheepsbouw Maatschappij (N.S.M.) for the Ministry of the Colonies. The dock was built on a terrain near Schellingwoude, east of the Oranje Locks, because it would be to wide to pass these, or the IJmuiden Locks. 1,200 piles were driven into the ground in order to create a foundation for the heavy dry dock. Note the portable engines used for each pile driver. Nederlands: Title:Voorbereidende fase voor de bouw van het Soerabajadok Omschrijving: Bouwnummer 117, drijvend droogdok, gebouwd door de Nederlandsche Scheepsbouw Maatschappij (N.S.M.) in opdracht van het Departement van Koloniën. De NSM was gevestigd aan de Conradstraat in het Oosterdok. Eerder had ze aan de noordzijde van het IJ het Julianadok gebouwd. Het Soerabaja dok werd gebouwd op een terrein bij Schellingwoude ten oosten van de Oranjesluizen. Dit omdat het droogdok teneinde de Noordzee te bereiken, over de Zuiderzee moest worden gesleept. Immers, de sluizen van IJmuiden, en de Oranjesluizen waren te smal voor dit droogdok. |
