Design of Dredging Equipment
(OE5671)Activities
Design projects
Design projects are presented for 6 different types of dredgers:
- heavy duty backhoe dredger
- heavy duty cutter suction dredger
- offshore gravel dredger
- dredger for the burrowing of industrial sand
- trailing hopper suction dredger for large-scale reclamation projects
- multi purpose trailing hopper suction dredger.
Each design poject is estimated at a work load of 320 hours.
