Marine

Our Marine Engineers are experienced dealing with the toughest coastal environments, in some of the most challenging access and corrosion conditions on Earth. To tackle this, we combine good old fashioned robust engineering, with the aim of providing reduced carbon solutions using modern materials. We do this with a real understanding of marine and environmental loading to drive our designs to solve the problems encountered.

We lead Design & Construction Teams with our specialist marine engineering skills, to deliver sustainable and efficient solutions, including;

Initial site condition and underwater inspection
Advanced existing structure assessment
Rehabilitation of existing and heritage infrastructure (Cathodic Protection)
Design for Scour & Dredging
Design of new port side infrastructure
Marina Design for Access & Berthing
Marine Temporary Works Design;
Technical Project Management.

Our extensive portfolio, viewable here, showcases our ability to deliver diverse marine engineering projects, from lifting and piling temporary works, to big picture Port Masterplanning, partner with us to create resilient infrastructure that will out-live us!

Featured Project

Castle Cornet Bridge, Guernsey

The 1950s-built bridge connecting Castle Emplacement to Castle Cornet on Guernsey is undergoing long-term structural monitoring to ensure continued access to the castle and breakwater.

Featured Project

The Great Light, Belfast

The Great Light is one of the largest optics of its kind ever built in the world, and is around 130 years old. Weighing 10 tonnes and measuring 7 metres tall, the optic is a unique maritime heritage object with significance to Belfast's economic, maritime and industrial past. It is totally irreplaceable and is an exceptionally rare maritime artefact. It produced one of the strongest lighthouse beams ever to shine - a truly GREAT LIGHT.

Featured Project

Bay Road Bridge, NW Greenway

Design ID were appointed by the Contractor to act as Principal Designer and Lead Footbridge Designer on this 63m Single Span Bowstring Truss Footbridge over the Pennyburn Inlet adjacent to the River Foyle in Derry City. The scheme comprised of 650m of shared pedestrian and cyclist greenway running along the banks of the River Foyle, forming a key connection with the existing path network within Bay Road Park. We led the design of the footbridge superstructure and substructure, connecting greenway paths, pedestrian guardrails, drainage and scour protection within the sensitive enviroment of the River Foyle.
