Coastal Engineering

Coastal structures only work if the analysis behind them is right. We assess wave climate, water levels, sediment movement and shoreline behaviour, then design structures sized for the conditions your site will actually see.

Capabilities

Coastal Structure Design

We design revetments, breakwaters, groins and seawalls against measured wave, water level and sediment conditions, balancing durability against cost and constructability.

Wave Analysis

Wave dynamics govern how a structure performs and how long it lasts. We use simulation and field measurement to characterise the wave climate that a design has to withstand.

Coastal Modelling

Numerical models let us test how waves, tides and structures interact before anything is built, so designs are tuned to the conditions of a specific site.

Coastal Data Collection

Sound design starts with measured data. We collect wave, water level and sediment data on site rather than relying on regional assumptions.

Recession Rate Analysis

Shorelines retreat at rates that vary widely between sites. We analyse historical records and field observation to establish recession rates and size defences for the design life.
