Coastal engineering is one of the most challenging and strategic fields of structural engineering. As STAKON, we bring together transportation and structural engineering disciplines to provide comprehensive solutions with our expert engineering team in marine structures and coastal protection projects. In these projects where wave, current, and soil conditions are managed together, we undertake the entire process from design to implementation.
Pier and Wharf Projects
-
Engineering and implementation solutions for floating or fixed pier systems
-
Static and geotechnical design of commercial, touristic, or military wharfs
-
Pile system, anchored wall, sheet pile and reinforced concrete platform designs
-
Solutions for ship berthing forces, mooring elements, and reinforcement details
Breakwaters
-
Engineering design of core, filter, and armor layers in offshore and harbor breakwater projects
-
Hydrodynamic calculations according to breaker type, length, opening, slope, and stone arrangement
-
Design and implementation solutions with fill stone, geotextile, concrete block, tetrapod and antifer structures
Coastal Protection Structures
-
Slope reinforcements to prevent coastal erosion, groynes (wave breaker projections), sea walls
-
Fill, wall, and reinforcement systems to ensure coastal stability from a geotechnical perspective
-
Coastal arrangements integrated with landscape and recreational use (walkways, seating areas)
-
Natural system-supported engineering solutions that reduce wave impact
Engineering and Technical Services
-
Determination of design criteria according to physical environmental conditions (wave height, tide, current)
-
Design of foundation type and depth, soil improvement techniques, and pile systems for coastal structures
-
Corrosion-resistant material and detail solutions for marine structures
-
Transportation connections: road connections, ramp slopes, engineering of loading-unloading areas
-
Engineering model based on soil survey, bathymetric, and hydrographic data analysis
Implementation and Site Management
-
Logistics and equipment planning suitable for working in marine environment
-
Technical applications such as underwater construction, pile driving, concrete pouring, block placement
-
Controlled site applications according to geotechnical stability, waterproofing, and balance calculations
-
Coordinated site management with port authorities, consulting institutions, and employers throughout the entire project
Workforce Supply
-
Experienced pile driving, sheet pile, and marine concrete teams for underwater construction
-
Experienced site crews in coastal protection, stone fill, and anchor installation
-
Site engineers, crane operators, and team leaders who have worked in pier/wharf construction
-
Experienced technical teams in underwater operations and marine logistics
