Marine environment

The marine environment is a strong selling point for many waterside developments. It is therefore essential to secure good water quality in marinas and canal systems within the development areas.

COWI has in-house expertise of the numerical modelling of water circulation.

Structures

We design all structures typically associated with marine developments, including breakwaters, jetties, boardwalks, floating pontoons, quay walls, locks and swing bridges.
