Dock operations are critical components of maritime and industrial activities, serving as vital interfaces between land and sea. However, these environments are notoriously harsh, characterized by constant exposure to saltwater, corrosive chemicals, heavy machinery, and fluctuating weather conditions. Traditional materials used in dock construction, such as steel and timber, often succumb to these harsh conditions, leading to frequent maintenance, high costs, and compromised safety. In recent years, Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) walkways have emerged as a game-changing solution, offering unparalleled safety and durability benefits that significantly enhance the efficiency and longevity of dock operations.  The Harsh Reality of Dock Environments Docks are subjected to some of the most demanding conditions imaginable. Saltwater, with its corrosive properties, is a constant threat to structural integrity. Traditional materials like steel are highly susceptible to rust, which can lead to structural weakness over time. Timber, while initially cost-effective, is prone to rot and decay, especially when exposed to prolonged moisture. Additionally, docks are often subjected to heavy loads from machinery and vehicles, as well as the constant movement of cargo. These factors contribute to rapid wear and tear, necessitating frequent repairs and replacements.Moreover, safety is a paramount concern in dock operations. Slippery surfaces, caused
