AMBS Cradle System

Consisting of 5 basic components (3 control units and 2 height adjustable barriers)

  • Modular barrage system protecting offshore, large estuary, port and harbour entrances and coastal major structures
  • Comprises three control vessels and two adjustable height barriers, together reaching 172m long. Other configurations are possible
  • Engineered to break waves upto 14m high (notably Hurricane Sandy’s largest waves were recorded at 14ft.
  • Designed to be positioned into the path of tropical storms.
  • Reduces storm surge speed, height and velocity impact, redirecting storm wave energy, enabling a localized active storm-wave-flow management
  • Generates a wide-water-barrier pool surrounding assets with becalmed water with lowered elevations
