Shore Protection Structures
Shorelines are dynamic landforms whose profiles change with every passing wave and changing tide. Sections of the shoreline will erode and recede, while others will accrete and grow. Engineered solutions are often sought to halt the erosion when structures are constructed at the water's edge.
Import & Export Terminals
Current widespread interest in importation of natural gas has sparked a new interest in offshore liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals. Optimization of these structures requires use of the latest developments in concrete and prestressing technology.
Marine & Waterfront Structures
Major changes in the world's ocean going vessels, coupled with the emergence of new markets, has and will continue to lead to expansion, upgrade and new construction of port facilities around the world. The planning, design, and construction of the structures supporting port facilities involves consideration of many unique factors.
