Bluemont Rock Bags™ have become the favoured choice for enhancing erosion control and ensuring stability in ports, particularly for wharves, boat ramps, and temporary jetties. Within our local area, ports are gearing up to accommodate ever-larger vessels, including the enormous cruise ships of today.
As these vessels continue to grow in size, their propellers and bow thrusters are increasing in scale as well, and our existing infrastructure is not always equipped to manage the resulting heightened water velocities. Consequently, we are witnessing a significant effort to upgrade port infrastructure.
As a crucial component of this ongoing effort, comprehensive physical scale modelling of Bluemont Rock Bags™ is being conducted at WRL (UNSW) as part of our analysis. These flexible rock net gabions serve as protective barriers against wave and water action, making them essential for safeguarding structures like wharves, boat ramps, temporary jetties, and coastal infrastructure.
Filled with rock, they mitigate erosion, manage high water velocities, and enhance stability, particularly in ports and harbours facing the challenges of accommodating larger vessels. Bluemont Rock Bags™ provide an eco-friendly solution as they are made from 100% recycled materials. They are a versatile solution for coastal engineering and civil construction projects, offering adaptability and resilience in various marine environments.
Bluemont Rock Bags™ are a cost-efficient solution that requires minimal preparation. Being extremely stable against varying water velocities makes them immensely effective as an erosion control system for your next project.
