Condomínio Mar D'Ouro
PROTEÇÃO COSTEIRA COM GABIÕES
Problem
The sea waves were eroding the seafront in front of the condominium, where the development’s leisure area and access ramp are located. These erosions have caused problems getting around and accessing the property.
Solution
To protect and control erosion, PoliMac™ box-type gabion containment was used, together with a PoliMac™ Reno® mattress, used at the pipe outlets, thus guaranteeing the protection and revitalisation of the development’s waterfront.
