Abstract

Coastal areas of Turkey are scientifically, culturally and economically very important places because of values in geomorphological, geological, biological, archeological and tourism properties. In this study, coastal structures are classified; and design phases of shore structures and required geological and geotechnical studies before design are explained. As an example, geological and geotechnical studies carried out during Alanya Yacht Harbor site investigations are evaluated. The effect of geological and geotechnical data obtained as a result of GDCRSA (General Directorate for the Construction of Railways, Seaports and Airports) studies was evaluated and geotechnical conditions which effect the project were determined.

 

Key words: Coastal structure, geology, geotechnical, marina.
