Bridge Construction
Bridge construction involves the design, planning, and building of structures that span physical obstacles, such as rivers, roads, or valleys, to provide safe and reliable transportation routes. The process includes foundation works, substructure and superstructure construction, and installation of decks, bearings, and other structural components.
Bridge construction requires precision, high-quality materials, and skilled engineering to ensure durability, safety, and long-term performance. It is essential for supporting transportation infrastructure and connecting communities efficiently and reliably.
Common Activities
- Design Review, Stakeholders provide feedback on drawings, plans, or specifications before approval.
- Quality Control, Identify potential issues or deviations from standards during construction.
- Change Management, Record and review suggestions for modifications to the project scope or methods.
- Coordination, Facilitate communication between teams, contractors, and clients.
- Risk Mitigation, Highlight potential problems early to prevent delays or cost overruns.
- Documentation, Maintain a formal record of comments, decisions, and approvals for accountability.
Jetty Construction
Jetty construction involves the design and building of structures extending from the shore into a body of water to facilitate the loading, unloading, and mooring of vessels. Jetties are typically constructed using piles, concrete decks, fenders, and protective works, designed to withstand marine conditions, tides, and vessel movements.
This method is ideal for ports, harbours, and industrial waterfront facilities, providing safe and durable access for shipping and marine operations. Jetty construction requires precision engineering, high-quality materials, and careful consideration of environmental and navigational factors to ensure long-term performance and safety.
Common Activities
- Site survey and investigation, assess water depth, soil conditions, and environmental factors.
- Design and planning, prepare structural and marine engineering designs, including load capacity and materials.
- Foundation works, install piles, caissons, or other substructures to support the jetty.
- Deck and superstructure installation, construct the walking or loading surface, including fenders, railings, and utilities.
- Marine equipment and services, install mooring systems, lighting, and safety features.
- Environmental protection, implement measures to minimise ecological impact during construction.
- Quality control and testing, inspect structural integrity, alignment, and compliance with specifications.
