How we design

Engineered for the site

Every marina starts with the site and the boats it has to serve. Layout, structure and approvals are handled by our own engineers.

Site survey and layout

We start with the site: bathymetry, tides, wave exposure and the boats the marina must serve, then lay out berths, fingers, access and services.

Design to recognised standards

Pontoons, gangways and piles are designed to AS 3962 for marina design and AS 1664 for aluminium structures, covering loads, freeboard, stability and access.

Structural design

Our engineers size the pontoon frames, floats, gangway trusses and piles for wave, wind, berthing and live loads, and issue fabrication drawings to our own shop.

Approvals

We prepare drawings and calculations for approval with the authorities, including public works departments, municipalities and master developers.

How we build and install

Our own yard, team and piling barge

Pontoons and gangways are fabricated in our covered shed, delivered by road and installed by our own crews, with piling driven from our own barge.
