I need a complete engineering design for a floating barrier that clearly marks and protects a restricted coastal zone. The installation will sit in open saltwater, so the concept must withstand regular wave action, tidal swings, and the occasional storm surge rather than the gentle conditions of a marina or lake.

I will provide the exact length, positioning coordinates, and any local regulations once we start. What I need from you is a practical, build-ready solution that doubles as a visible security perimeter. Think of the heavy-duty booms you see around sensitive naval facilities—high-visibility colors, rugged buoyancy elements, robust connection hardware, and a mooring system that keeps every section in place even when currents pick up.

Please include:
• Concept drawings and 3-D/CAD files showing plan, elevation, and connection details
• Buoyancy and load calculations that account for local wave heights, tidal range, and current velocity
• A recommended bill of materials with marine-grade components specified by standard or manufacturer
• Mooring layout with anchor sizing, line type, and tension data
• Step-by-step installation and routine maintenance guidance

I prefer common design tools such as AutoCAD, Rhino, or SolidWorks for modeling and Excel or similar for calculations—use what you know best as long as files are easy to share. All documents must be in English and use metric units; provide US customary equivalents where helpful.

Submission will be reviewed against the stated wave and tide criteria, structural integrity of connections, and clarity of installation instructions.
