Renovation outside shipper in Delfzijl seaport area In the seaport area of Delfzijl with strongly varying tidal waters, Heuvelman Ibis, in collaboration with SealteQ, carried out the renovation of an outside shipper. The entire project from A to Z Heuvelman Ibis was recruited for this project as a hydraulic engineering expert with specific knowledge and expertise in the field of "highly varying tidal water" and uses this knowledge and expertise within this project, among other things, in the supply over water. The entire project of both the temporary and the final loading jetty is carried out from A to Z - from engineering to final installation - by the Heuvelman Ibis construction team. This extends the life of the existing loading dock and increases the safety regime above the set safety requirements at the request of the client. The concrete and reinforcement of the concrete arch of the outside shipper has been renovated in phases. Forty years of action of salt water has left its mark. By joining forces with Sealteq, we combine 'the best of both worlds' and complement each other perfectly. Together, taking into account safety, the environment, the complexity of the tides, storm and breeding season and the shipper's availability, we are able to meet the client's requirements. The concrete arch stands on thirty-metre-long piles driven into the ground and partly submerged in water. The approximately 180-metre existing steel superstructure of the shipper with walkway function has been completely replaced by new prefab parts. These prefab parts consist of a steel frame with plastic grids and GRP plastic (glass fiber reinforced plastic) railings. These GRP plastic parts require little maintenance and have a long service life. The steel footbridges are produced and installed in-house. A unique piece of craftsmanship!
