Istanbul Technical University Maritime Facility

Istanbul Technical University Maritime Facility

Miyamoto Turkey was tasked with transforming the existing shore area into sheltered conditions so that the retired Akdeniz boat, that was donated to serve as a training ship, will function accordingly. The existing breakwater structure was extended 180 m (including also widening to allow for vehicle traffic) so that the Akdeniz boat could safely remain in the sheltered area. A wharf structure, 35 m wide and 70 m long, was supported by steel driven pipes and a 29 m long PC bridge structure for the transition between wharf and breakwater systems that were designed for transportation purposes. Separately, 38, 48 and 64 m long 3 jetty structures with steel driven piles and 17 m long PC-type bridge structures were designed to enable the small size boats to board.
