Relocation of Market And Harbour In Mina

The scope of work includes up to 5.5 million cu.m of dredging for the harbour, revetment and the construction of quay walls (diaphragm wall). Considerable well-pointing had to be installed around the periphery of the proposed wall to allow for the construction of the capping beams. Due to the reclaimed nature of the soil, ground conditions varied considerably, calling for varied approaches to be adopted to ensure the efficient and effective control of the ground water.
