Abstract

Dredging construction is an important link in the construction and maintenance of ports and waterways, which plays a key role in guaranteeing the navigation of waterways and improving the throughput capacity of ports. However, the construction process will often have a certain impact on the normal passage of the waterway, in order to ensure the construction progress and quality at the same time to ensure the safety of harbor and waterway navigation, dredging construction is an urgent problem to be solved. This paper analyzes the impact of dredging construction on port and waterway navigation and proposes a series of effective safeguard measures, covering pre-construction navigation assessment, real-time monitoring and adjustment during construction, development of contingency plans, and collaborative management of construction and port operation. Successful navigation protection practices at home and abroad are discussed in the context of case studies, which provide feasible strategies and methods for the protection of port and waterway navigation during dredging construction in the future, and look forward to the future development trend of dredging construction technology and its impact on port and waterway navigation protection measures.
