1. The given function is  
   $$
   f(x)=3\log_{2}(x-5).
   $$

2. For a logarithmic function $$\log_b(u)$$ to be defined, the argument $$u$$ must be positive. In this case, the argument is $$x-5$$. Therefore, we require that  
   $$
   x-5 > 0.
   $$

3. Solve the inequality:  
   $$
   \begin{aligned}
   x-5 &> 0, \
   x &> 5.
   \end{aligned}
   $$

4. Thus, the domain of $$f(x)$$ is all real numbers greater than 5, which in interval notation is  
   $$
   (5, \infty).
   $$
The domain of $$ f(x)=3 \log_{2}(x-5) $$ is all real numbers greater than 5, which is $$ (5, \infty) $$.
