Marine Construction: Techniques, Materials, and Lighting Solutions
What Is Marine Construction?
Marine construction involves the design, engineering, and building of coastal or offshore structures such as docks, piers, seawalls, and energy platforms. These structures must withstand saltwater corrosion, wave impact, and environmental stress, making material choice and lighting crucial for safety and longevity.
DRSA’s marine-grade LED lighting supports every phase of construction and operation, offering reliable illumination for docks, work platforms, and offshore facilities.
Key Aspects of Marine Construction
-
Materials: Stainless steel, reinforced concrete, and polymer composites built for corrosion resistance.
-
Techniques: Piling, dredging, modular assembly, and floating platform installation.
-
Applications: Ports, marinas, shipyards, offshore energy platforms, and yacht facilities.
