Apapa Channel in Lagos harbor with Cares Group
Ascendia's offshore geotechnical engineering expertise is evident in its approach to a project at Apapa Channel in Lagos harbor. The assessment begins with calculating the stability of the original quay wall, considering excavation and deck levels. Subsequently, Ascendia addresses current concerns, recalculating stability parameters with an adjusted excavation level.
Taking a proactive stance, Ascendia designes a new combi-wall structure, incorporating steel tubes and sheet piles. The design factors in a new excavation level, and Ascendia provides detailed calculation sheets covering tube and pile depths, stability factors, tie-rod sizing, and more. Throughout, a design surcharge loading of 30KN/m2 is meticulously considered.
In essence, Ascendia's offshore geotechnical engineering contribution is characterized by precision, addressing current challenges, and proposing innovative solutions for resilient and stable structures.
