A course of great relevance in the area of port infrastructures, which will bring you up to date on everything related to dredging equipment"

The relevance of dredging work requires from the professional dedicated to port infrastructures a wide knowledge of the materials to be dredged, the proper selection of equipment, the fillings coming from such dredging, as well as the dredging methodology and the different environmental considerations.

 All these points are addressed in the Dredging Equipment Selection postgraduate certificate in an efficient and practical way.

The module's program is completed with port pavements, an indispensable unit in almost every port activity. The different standards for their design will also be discussed, including the latest Maritime Works Recommendations for the design and construction of pavements, ROM 4.1-18 and their comparison with other international standards such as those based on the British Standard

How to choose the most suitable dredging equipment in each case and the specifications required in each situation"
