Marine Waterfront Experts

The experts at Robson Forensic are at home on the waterfront. Their backgrounds are varied and relevant to the multitude of issues that may arise on and around the water.

Structures and Infrastructure on the Waterfront

In most towns and cities, the waterfront is considered just a different area than the streets and roads. Yet there are many aspects of the waterfront that are designed, constructed, and maintained fundamentally differently than the rest of the city.

A case involving structures and infrastructure on the waterfront may be more appropriately investigated by a marine engineer, than a traditional civil engineer.

Examples of Such Cases Many Include:

  • Driving of sheet piling
  • Applying riprap to a bank
  • The construction or maintenance of a pier or floats
  • Dredging of a river or a harbor
