The works were carried out approximately 100m on the inner side of the new breakwater. The breakwater is a new revetment for the Delma Multi-Purpose Port that has three slipways planned on the inner side with a length of 35m and a width of 15m for the first two slip ways and 10m for the last one. The width of the breakwater is 69m and 87m on the location of work site with a total length of approximately 450m.
Three ramp structures were constructed according to our design along with the installation of a quay wall structure. The quay wall was constructed by driving sheet piles, installation of anchors and mounting precast capping beam and ramp structures along with the cathodic protection for the exposed wall.
