Summary

The construction of the artificial basin in Cartagena's Mandarache Sea during the 18th century represents a groundbreaking achievement in military engineering, showcasing the advanced technical knowledge of the Bourbon naval fleet. This doctoral thesis highlights the unprecedented challenge posed by this project, which involved two distinct phases: design and implementation. Through an analysis of numerous projects and the construction process, the study reveals how the basin's development set a milestone in illustrated technical culture. The research emphasizes the significance of understanding both the genesis and execution of such complex architectural works to appreciate their historical impact on naval engineering.
