Waterfront

Taylor Engineering has combined the diverse expertise of its civil, environmental, coastal, water resources, geotechnical, structural, and construction engineers to form a focused and dedicated team to tackle a variety of demanding waterfront engineering projects.

Two factors give our Waterfront Engineering group its competitive edge. First, the group works with the company's environmental engineers and scientists to develop feasible designs within the context of today's complex regulatory framework. Second, the group works with the company's coastal and water resources engineers to prepare structural and non-structural designs unique to specific waterside conditions in low- and high-energy environments. With these solid support groups of experienced professionals, our waterfront engineers can produce sustainable designs appropriate for any setting.

Company experience includes marina planning and design; navigation, dredging, and dredged material management engineering; marine structures design including pile foundations, bulkheads, seawalls, shoreline stabilization installations, and erosion control structures; and stormwater systems analysis and design.
