BlueShore Engineering L.L.C.

Planning, engineering, and design of structures along the shorelines of rivers, estuaries, harbors, and oceans.

• Coastal Structures

  Design of piers, wharves, pile-supported structures, cantilever and tied-back bulkheads, harbor walks, breakwaters, rip-rap and other revetments, and boat launch ramps.

• Coastal Modeling

  Wind and wave analysis, tidal surge modeling, flood modeling, coastal erosion hazard analysis, sedimentation and erosion, and FEMA Coastal Construction requirements.

• Corrosion and Design Life Analysis

  Planning the design of structures with sacrificial thickness, cathodic protection, and protective coatings to reduce maintenance requirements and minimize lifecycle costs.

• Marina Design and Renovation

  Design of complex commercial marina renovations and dock systems, including wave attenuators, ship-to-shore power, pumpout systems, and boat lift bays.

• Coastal Site Planning

  Comprehensive site planning that considers commercial, industrial, and recreational land-water connections, public access, safety, and native landscaping integration.

Planning, design, and construction oversight for development and renovation in coastal and riverine flood zones.

• Flood Zone Construction Planning

  Planning new development, project siting, and minimum construction elevations and requirements per ASCE 24 and FEMA P-55 Coastal Construction Manual guidelines.

• Dry Floodproofing Design

  Design of dry-floodproofing systems including flood gates, flood doors, tank ballasting structures, and anchorage.

• FEMA Grant Assistance and Hazard Mitigation

  Post-disaster response, damage outlining, infrastructure repair estimates, and coordination with FEMA and State Emergency Management Offices.

Efficient and constructible structural designs, inspections, and investigations for building structures and foundations.

• Structural Design

  Structural design using block, brick masonry, light framing, heavy timber, structural steel, conventional, precast, or prestressed concrete, and carbon or glass fiber reinforcement.

• Special Structural Inspections

  Periodic and continuous inspections in accordance with IBC Chapter 17, covering masonry, steel, concrete, timber, and foundation pile installation.

• Structural Investigations

  Condition assessments and failure analysis of existing structures to plan repairs for safe re-use, addressing foundation subsidence, expansive soils, and fatigue-induced fracturing.

Coordination of design and environmental permitting with regulatory agencies to guide projects through reviews efficiently.
