Lessons learned from the construction of Port of Koper

Logar, Janko (author)

The development of the Port of Koper started in 1957 in the Gulf of Koper at the northern coast of the old town. The first berths constructed on flysch bedrock soon became insufficient for the growing activity of the young port and the development of additional berths had to move to the area where thick deposits of soft marine clay dominated. The paper briefly describes the history of the development of the Port of Koper and presents some selected case histories from its construction.
