Takeaways
Key points from this episode
- Sectioning a quay wall into fixed reference panels makes successive surveys comparable over multiple years.
- Diving windows are set against vessel movements and tide, not the other way round.
- For submerged structure, the report is the deliverable: video and defect registers are what the asset owner actually uses.
