Frankham’s Maritime Engineering Team has been working with Aggregate Industries in the refurbishment of their jetty on the Isle of Grain.

The jetty was inspected by the team in the Autumn of 2021 and designs were produced to restore the asset including timber and box fender replacements, concrete repairs and protective coating to steel piles. Frankham managed the tender process on behalf of Aggregate Industries setting out a scope of works and assessing various contractor’s suitability.

The refurbishment works began in January 2024 with Frankham supervising the project on behalf of Aggregate Industries. TopBond is the Principal Contractor and are utilising their 250T jack up barge (Topjack) to complete the works on the jetty head and approach.

Frankham have worked with both client and contractor providing additional technical support to mitigate site issues, as well as managing the NEC4 contract. The project is now over 80% complete, with the new fenders installed. The project will be complete by Autumn of 2024.
