KHOURY Construction Contracting: Beach protection execution study mission
The mission awarded to CORINTHE Engineering involves the design of a submerged breakwater to reduce the energy of the waves offshore before they reach the shore. Doing so will prevent beach submersion during storms, similar to the event which occurred on January 6-7, 2015.
The mission was extended to part-time supervision of the works.
The design mission is broken down as follows:
• Review of the data collected
• Wave propagation
• Site diagnostics and layout of the proposed solutions
• Digital beach evolution modeling
• Detailed design of the solution
This report is about “Site diagnostics and layout of the proposed solutions”.
