Worthington Saved a South Carolina Dam Owner $987,000—Here’s How

The “default” contractor quoted $1.3 million. Our expert crews did it for just $287,000.

With over 25 years of experience designing, supplying, and installing boom systems, Worthington brings a perspective that general marine contractors simply don’t have. Our understanding of hydrodynamic forces, anchoring techniques, and site logistics allows us to complete installations faster, more efficiently, and at a fraction of the cost.

Why Let Worthington Handle the Installation?

Faster, More Reliable Installation – We eliminate costly delays and missteps
Lower Costs, Higher Value – Our specialized approach saved this dam owner nearly $1 million.
Turnkey Solutions – From engineering to installation, we handle everything so your team can focus on operations.

Advanced 3D Flow Analysis Helped A BC Hydro Company Improve Boom Placement

Designing an effective safety boom system starts with understanding where the most dangerous, fast-moving waters are located. For a British Columbia hydro utility, our Flow 3D analysis provided a detailed look at water velocity and flow characteristics, ensuring the boom was placed outside hazardous zones. With this data, our engineers developed a strategic boom design, incorporating shoreline and in-water anchorages to maximize safety, durability, and performance.

From simple load calculations to full-scale boom system design, we provide the engineering expertise you need—so you don’t have to spend time figuring it out yourself. Whether you require Flow 3D modeling, CAD drawings, anchorage design, or structural connections, our team delivers data-driven solutions that optimize performance and durability of your boom system.
