Know what is the Gravity Blocks quay wall! ?

Know the components of the quay wall.

Identify the steps of implementation of the blocks quay wall

Able to Work as a marine engineer.

Requirements

No experience needed you will learn everything here.

Description

This course has a deep experience in marine construction specially construction of the gravity blocks quay walls, its components and how will build the gravity quay walls (foundation, blocks, block yard, back fill, filter, loading test, the crown, fenders and bollards.Then will learn how to implement this type of the quay walls on the site and the requirements will need them for the implementation.Attached also with each component photos from the real project and also each step for implementation steps has photos to go deeply in this type of the quay walls.All information at this course has a long-term experience and a long way through codes and academic articles to bring the information for you safely.I hope enjoying going through this course and promise to meet again at other courses about remaining type of quay walls and the gravity blocks quay walls design.About this course: -this course will have three sections the first one will be an introduction or entrance for the course. the second chapter we will talk about components of the gravity blocks quay walls from its foundation to the crown and the crown accessories like fenders and bollards.Then we will go more deeply towards the gravity quay wall construction and steps of implementation step by step from the dredging operation till casting the concrete of the crown and put accessories on it.Thanks in advance.Ayman was with you.
