This residential project is located on the Wando River in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina adjacent to the Charleston Harbor. The project consists of a 4′ x 44′ extension to an existing 585′ fixed pier walkway, a 20′ x 30′ covered fixed pier head with a 3′ x 35′ gangway leading to a 10′ x 66′ concrete floating dock. The mooring area at the floating dock is protected from wind and wave action by a 10′ x 195′ concrete floating wave attenuator.
JGT was engaged to modify and existing permit as well as provide Engineering Design, Bidding, and Construction Administration services. The permit modification process through SCDHEC-Bureau of Water, SCDHEC-OCRM and the Corps of Engineers included extensive wind and wave studies to justify the required wave attenuation system at the exposed location.
Construction of the project began in October of 2015.
