Navigation Channel DredgingEngineering & Construction Applications Dredge“Stuyvesant”
Dredge Payment Surveys DREDGE PAYMENT SURVEYS Cross-sections spaced 100 ft or 200 ft C/C Sections must extend outside channel toe to fully develop side slope (150 to 200 ft typical) 40x300 ft channel
Dredge Measurement & Payment Survey TIN Volume computations 3-D Model
Dredged Material Placement Area Offshore Submergent Disposal Area Surveys Emergent or Upland Disposal Area Construction Surveys Tampa Bay
Beach Profile SurveysConstruction Measurement & Payment Ft Pierce, Florida Jacksonville District Control Baseline Beach profile lines spaced 200-500 ft c/c (typical) Typical disparity between topo and acoustic surveys
Topo Profile Hydro Profile Rod & Transit and RTK Techniques vertical accuracy: +/-1 cm to +/- 10 cm horizontal accuracy: 0.1 to 3 meters RMS spatial resolution: typically shore-normal lines 300 m (1000 ft) apart positioning system: ranging/ETS relative to established benchmarks minimum crew: 2 cost: about $1000/Km ($1600/mile) of beach assuming 300-m profile spacing
