In this handbook for practicing maritime engineers, Gaythwaite, a maritime engineering consultant, covers the design of marine structures for the berthing, mooring, and repair of vessels, including piers, wharfs, bulkheads, quaywalls, dry and floating docks, and various ancillary structures. Issues addressed include vessel characteristics, dry dock types, and inspection, as well as assessment of existing facilities. Design standards, graphs, and tables are included, along with line drawings and b&w photos. The book can also be used as an introductory text for civil and structural engineers involved in port and harbor structure design. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
