Our Role
ByrneLooby were appointed by PJ Hegarty & Sons, working for Cork County Council, as designers of the coastal revetment element and temporary environmental containment works on this design & build contract. We designed a two-layer natural armour stone revetment to protect the site from wave activity. The revetment included a controlled permeability layer to manage leachate from the site. We also designed a temporary floating silt curtain, the longest employed in Ireland, to prevent runoff from the site during construction activities.
