Fremantle Port Underwater Rock Mound
TAMS utilise 'Total Support' Back Hoe Dredge to place over 15,000 tonnes of limestone to protect Fremantle rail bridge from collissions
TAMS were contracted by the FPA to place over 15,000 tonnes of limestone core and armour rock on the river bed adjacent to the rail bridge piers, to form an underwater rock mound, designed to prevent vessels colliding with the rail bridge.
Additional works included the placement of 27 concrete mattresses around the base of the rock mound to minimise scour between the mound and wharf wall.
