Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods that permit assembly, disassembly, and relocation of modular structures, such as platforms and towers, without the need for permanent attachment of the modules, such as welding. Aspects of certain embodiments replace permanent attachment means, such as welding, with connectors at the structural interfaces between modules. Certain embodiments of the connectors of the present invention allow for the repeated reuse and relocation of modular structures as needed. Certain embodiments allow for the use of float-over methodologies to coupled topside modules to supporting structures without offshore welding.
