5 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1THE PROJECT Foresees.. the construction of the structures necessary for the transit of the Post Panamax ships generation. The Third Set of Locks project Is the most important of all parts of the project which include: Access channel in the Pacific Ocean side (dredging contract) Access channel in the Atlantic Ocean side (dredging contract) Connection channel between the pacific locks and the existing channel (CAP 1 through CAP 4) Enlargement and deepening of the existing channel. Assures.. that the works are being carried out in a coordinated manner in order to have the operation of the new installations in the year 2014 accomplishing 100 years of the start of the operations of the Panama Canal.

13 CONSTRUCTION METHODS 4DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION The Design and Build of the Third Set of Locks has to take into consideration several fundamental elements : The complexity of the geology in the Pacific side The active faults in the Pacific side and the consequent high seismicity expected in this area The fact that only in the Pacific side suitable rock for the concrete production is available The presence of recent sedimentary and unstable deposits in the Atlantic side and in part of the Pacific side The very strict requirements for the locks distinguished maneuvers and operation The minimum acceptable interruption timing for maintenance services The negative effect of the rainy season on the production during construction phase The short schedule time available for the huge foreseen quantities
