Coastal Engineering/Protection

Coastal engineering and protection involve designing and implementing measures to safeguard coastal areas from erosion, flooding, and other hazards. Techniques include the construction of seawalls, groins, and breakwaters to reduce wave impact and sediment loss. Beach nourishment, the process of adding sand to eroding beaches, is another common strategy. Additionally, coastal and civil engineering contractors develop natural solutions like restoring wetlands and mangroves to enhance resilience
