Construction of Sea Wall

The physical design of seawalls is highly variable. Essentially, they can either be vertical or sloping and made from a range of materials. Seawalls range in type and size, and the most long-lasting ones are those constructed using stones and concrete. Seawalls need proper design and construction supervision. That’s why you need to hire professionals to work on your seawall project.

Because these structures protect the shoreline from erosion due to waves, we build sturdy seawalls. Also, the texture of the walls and design have a significant impact on the performance of your wall. Irregular surfaces disperse the wave direction. On the other hand, the smooth surface is designed to reflect the wave energy.

When building our seawalls, we ensure that they have a deep foundation; this enhances their stability. Additionally, we will install sinkholes in your walls, as this will reduce the effect of environmental wall stresses and prevent sinkholes.

Moreover, our team will bury earth anchors deep into your land and connect them with rods to the wall. In turn, this will help it overcome pressure caused by the landward side.

How Deep Should Seawalls Be?

The depth of seawalls varies from 4-10 ft or more; this depends on several factors. The inland walls do not need to go far into the ground. Keep in mind that different materials require different depths.

• The type of material used
