The invention discloses a construction method for piers, which comprises the following steps: (1) performing
geological exploration, clearing stones at the river bottom, meanwhile integrally assembling an inner
cofferdam support structure on a
barge at other place, and assembling a drilling platform; (2) floating the inner
cofferdam support structure in place, inserting and striking steel
pipe piles and
pile foundation steel casings of the drilling platform, mounting a connection tie between the steel
pipe piles and the
pile foundation steel casings of the drilling platform, hoisting the inner
cofferdam support structure out of the
barge, and hoisting and placing the inner cofferdam support structure on the connection tie in temporary place; (3) lowing the inner cofferdam support structure in place, and inserting and striking a steel plate
pile cofferdam; (4) hoisting the drilling platform to the pile foundation steel casings in place, and mounting a
drill on the drilling platform to
drill holes; and (5)
underwater absorbing mud and cleaning
silt for the inner cofferdam support structure,
underwater leveling the foundation, and pouring
underwater bottom sealing concrete. The construction method changes scattered construction into integral construction, changes over-water construction into
shore construction, and changes streamline construction into synchronous construction.
