Lanka Hydraulic Institute completes project in Algeria

Lanka Hydraulic Institute Ltd, an engineering consultancy, has completed another coastal engineering project in Algeria.

A 2.5 km long coastal segment in Mostaganem, in West Algeria has been transformed to a self-sustaining beach marina with recreational facilities including a pleasure port. This project followed the completion of a full-fledged commercial fishery harbour in Messida, Algeria. The project was the company's second coastal stabilisation project in the Mediterranean region after its beach restoration project in Cannes, France in 2013.

LHI is a fully Sri Lankan business entity operating in the fields of coastal, water resources and urban water engineering.

The company maintains a state-of-the-art hydraulics laboratory with abilities in engineering design, field measurements, physical and mathematical modelling; and carries out consultancy work for domestic and overseas clients in the Middle East, Southeast Asian, East Asian, African and European regions. During its 30-year history, LHI has contributed enormously to the coastal and water sector with more than 350 consultancy projects completed worldwide.

The LHI owns a large 25m x 35 m free spanning basin in the banks of Bolgoda. Being one of the largest test basins in South Asia, it is equipped with computer controlled wave makers to replicate in-situ ocean waves and tides or recreate river currents of standard and extreme storm events. All projects are handled in-house using Sri Lankan expertise. Key project staff consists of five PhD and three MSc qualified senior engineers having international and local experience, backed by a technically proficient supportive staff.

In Sri Lanka, LHI has been involved in water supply projects in Ratnapura and Matara, flood mitigation projects in Galle and Kandy, and field and modeling investigations for the Port City project.
