Inspection of Balearic Islands Ports
Balearic Islands, Spain
Service: Hydraulic Study
Client: Port Authority of the Balearic Islands
Period: 2016
The project aimed to evaluate the preservation of the docks managed by the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands in the Ports of Palma, Alcudia, Maó, Ibiza and La Savina, as well as updating the bathymetry under the docks, basins and maneuvering areas. A total of 15,310 linear meters of docks have been inspected and bathymetries have been carried out in an area of 532 Ha. After the field surveys, a level of representative service of the preservation was assigned for each one of the analyzed docks. A diagnosis of the state and causes of its deterioration were established in order to carry out the necessary repairs of the damaged docks. Service indexes were established for each dock and global ones for each port in order to prioritize actions and have an overview of their preservation state.
