Water Front and Port Case Studies
Port of Miami New North Berth 7 | Miami, FL
Ebsary Foundation Company contracted Schnabel to design and construct 63 permanent ground anchors to support the Port of Miami Berth 7 Expansion Project. The majority of the work performed by Schnabel was completed from a barge in an area of the port with heavy ship traffic.
Port of Houston | Houston, TX
Schnabel stabilized two existing 25-ft tall sheet pile walls at the Port of Houston. The work consisted of repairing the failed portion of the wall and providing additional stability to the remaining walls.
