Our coastal engineers understand their critical role in providing an avenue for other teams to visualize ways by which waves and currents can negatively impact a marine structure and their foundations.
Beyond the traditional assessment of wave loads, we specialize in the analysis of liquefaction, wave-structure dynamics, lubrication theory and scour. We have successfully applied advanced finite element packages such as PLAXIS and FLAC to the study of wave-induced liquefaction of caisson breakwaters on soft soils. Our engineers are proficient with the deployment of a large portfolio of scour protection measures, including armor stone, riprap, gabion mattresses, launch aprons, articulated concrete mats and others, each selected to efficiently match any project's size and needs.
