This paper considers scour protection and construction methods for open piled quays. The Land Infill construction method for piled wharves will be outlined, which can

Geosynthetic concrete mattress systems are regularly used underwater to provide reliable in situ concrete protection. As vessel sizes and propulsion types advance, bed scour velocities

Effective scour protection is usually needed to protect berthing structures from vessels actions with increasing size and power. For seagoing vessels, use of propellers is

Quay structures can be reduced by design using thinner scour protection. The performance of thinner protections as ‘Sealed’ or ‘Open’ to flow entry is described.

The Land Infill construction method for open piled quays is outlined, which offers savings in time and cost during construction. The use of insitu concrete

Al Faw Grand Port is currently one the world’s largest port developments and is being constructed as a major part of the regeneration plan for

In situ concrete mattress protection with open hole porosity have been developed and used over the last 10 years as scour protection to wave zones.

Advancement in berth scour protection has been mainly led by research and observation of performance in harbours. This paper seeks to review and summarize this
