MARINE CONSTRUCTION

At Royal Atlas General Contracting, our Marine Infrastructure Works service specializes in the construction and development of essential marine structures and coastal protection systems. With extensive experience in marine engineering, we are dedicated to delivering high-quality, reliable solutions that meet the unique challenges of coastal and offshore environments. Our expertise encompasses a wide range of services, including beach excavation, marine wall construction, and various other marine infrastructure projects.

 

Our Expertise Includes:

 

Beach Excavation

Beach excavation is a critical component of coastal development and erosion control. Our team is skilled in safely and efficiently excavating sand and sediment to create usable beach areas, improve shoreline accessibility, and facilitate coastal restoration projects. We employ specialized equipment designed for marine environments, ensuring minimal disruption to the surrounding ecosystem while maintaining compliance with environmental regulations.

 

Marine Wall Construction

We specialize in constructing robust marine walls to protect shorelines, marinas, and waterfront properties from erosion and storm surges. Our marine walls are designed to withstand harsh marine conditions, using durable materials such as concrete, steel, and stone. We offer various types of marine walls, including:

Sheet Pile Walls: Ideal for areas requiring high-strength and low-maintenance solutions. These walls are driven into the ground to provide effective protection against erosion and water intrusion.

Gravity Walls: Constructed from heavy materials like concrete and stone, gravity walls rely on their weight to resist lateral forces from soil and water.

Riprap Walls: Made of large stones, riprap walls provide natural erosion control while allowing water flow, making them suitable for less developed coastal areas.

 

Dredging and Marine Excavation

Our dredging services are essential for maintaining navigable waterways, harbors, and marinas. We utilize advanced dredging equipment to remove sediment, debris, and underwater obstacles, ensuring safe navigation and optimal water depths. Our marine excavation services include the removal of unwanted materials and the creation of channels for enhanced water flow and access.

 

Coastal Protection Systems

Protecting coastlines from erosion and storm damage is crucial for sustainable development. We design and construct a variety of coastal protection systems, including:

Breakwaters: These structures reduce wave energy and protect shorelines from erosion by absorbing and reflecting incoming waves. We construct both fixed and floating breakwaters based on site conditions and client needs.

Seawalls: Seawalls provide a barrier between land and water, protecting inland areas from storm surges and high tides. We ensure these structures are built to withstand harsh marine environments and provide long-lasting protection.

Groins: Installed perpendicular to the shore, groins help trap sand and sediment, preventing beach erosion and promoting the natural replenishment of beaches.

 

Marine Infrastructure for Harbors and Docks

We provide comprehensive services for the construction and renovation of harbors, docks, and marinas. Our expertise includes:

Piling Installation: We utilize various piling methods, including driven piles and drilled shafts, to create stable foundations for piers and docks.

Floating Docks and Piers: We design and construct floating docks that adapt to changing water levels while providing safe access for boats and recreational users.

Fender Systems: Our fender systems protect vessels and structures from impacts, ensuring safe docking and mooring operations.

 

Environmental Mitigation and Restoration

 

We are committed to minimizing the environmental impact of our marine infrastructure projects. Our team implements best practices for environmental mitigation, including the use of silt curtains, eco-friendly construction methods, and restoration of natural habitats. We work closely with environmental agencies to ensure compliance with all regulations and standards.
