shoreline protection / stabilization
Coast & Harbor Engineering's (CHE) shoreline protection/stabilization project experience is broad and diverse. Our engineers have performed coastal analysis and shoreline protection design on the open coast, in bays and estuaries, and in rivers and lakes. Shoreline protection analyses have evaluated causes of erosion ranging from vessel-induced transport to storm surge and El Niño effects. Design experience includes:
Upper/Lower Beach Nourishment
Gravel/Cobble Beaches and Dynamic Revetments
Bulkheads, Revetments and Seawalls
Wave Attenuation and Beach Retention Structures
Traditional and Non-Traditional Groins
Reinforced Soil Slopes
Semi-Soft Solutions: Geotextile Containers, Reinforced Woody Debris, Etc.
