Harbor construction involves building facilities that provide safe docking and shelter for ships and boats. This process includes creating structures like docks, piers, and breakwaters to protect vessels from waves and storms. Engineers assess the local environment to ensure the harbor can accommodate various types of watercraft and withstand natural forces. The construction typically requires heavy machinery and materials such as concrete, steel, and rock. Environmental considerations are crucial, as builders must minimize impacts on local ecosystems and waterways. Proper planning and design help ensure that the harbor remains functional and safe for maritime activities over time.
