Coastal Resilience Engineering
Protecting Northeast Florida developments from storm surge, flooding, erosion, and sea-level rise with engineering solutions built to endure.
Key Capabilities
From flood mitigation to living shorelines, we engineer resilience into every layer of your coastal development.
Flood Mitigation Design
Finished-floor elevations, flood-proofing details, and site grading strategies that keep structures and infrastructure above design-flood levels while meeting FEMA and community floodplain requirements.
Stormwater Engineering
Detention, retention, and conveyance systems sized for increasingly intense rainfall events. Our designs satisfy SJRWMD permitting standards and reduce downstream flood risk.
Shoreline Stabilization
Engineered solutions that protect waterfront property from wave energy and erosion, including living shorelines, revetments, and hybrid approaches tailored to site-specific conditions.
Climate Adaptation Planning
Long-range analysis of sea-level rise projections, tidal trends, and storm-frequency data to inform setback distances, infrastructure elevations, and phased adaptation strategies.
Resilience Solutions
Integrated engineering approaches that protect developments from coastal hazards today and adapt to changing conditions over time.
Flood Protection Systems
Comprehensive flood mitigation engineering including elevated foundations, perimeter berms, flood walls, and backflow prevention devices designed to protect developments from riverine and coastal flooding events.
Stormwater Management
Advanced stormwater systems that combine detention basins, bioswales, and permeable surfaces to manage runoff, improve water quality, and reduce flood risk across the entire development footprint.
Living Shoreline Design
Nature-based shoreline protection using oyster reef structures, native marsh plantings, and strategic grading to absorb wave energy, reduce erosion, and enhance coastal habitat along the Intracoastal and St. Johns River.
Our Process
A four-phase approach that moves from hazard analysis through long-term monitoring to keep your development protected.
Risk Assessment
We analyze FEMA flood maps, LiDAR elevation data, tidal records, and historical storm data to quantify flood, erosion, and sea-level rise exposure for your specific site and surrounding area.
Engineering Design
Our engineers develop resilience strategies and detailed construction documents that address identified risks — from grading and drainage plans to shoreline stabilization and structural flood-proofing details.
Construction & Installation
Qualified contractors build flood protection systems, install stormwater infrastructure, and construct shoreline improvements under our construction administration and quality-assurance oversight.
Monitoring & Maintenance
Post-construction monitoring tracks system performance through storm events and seasonal tidal cycles. We provide maintenance plans and adaptive recommendations to ensure long-term resilience.
