The book also delves into the challenges of working with various terrains, including sand, gravel, and rock, and provides solutions for overcoming them. Of note is the author's work on the Cherbourg breakwater, which remains a testament to his innovative engineering and the enduring significance of his contributions to the field.

Portrait-frontispice de l'auteur gravé par B. Roger d'après Bouché, un tableau dépliant et 67 planches dépliantes gravées par Michel ou Collin, Unique édition de ce recueil tiré à petit nombre à l'initiative de Dubois d'Arnouville, et réservé aux souscripteurs. Il réunit les études et mémoires des principales réalisations du grand ingénieur que fut Cessart : I. Pont de Saumur. Pont et quai de Rouen. Port du Havre. Port du Tréport. Pont des Arts à Paris. - II. Port de Dieppe. Rade de Cherbourg. Louis-Alexandre de Cessart (1719-1806) avait commencé sa carrière dans la Gendarmerie de la Maison du Roi, et il avait fait à ce titre les campagnes de 1743 à 1746, assistant au batailles de Fontenoy et de Raucoux. Mais, à l'issue de la Guerre de Succession d'Autriche, il se fit admettre en 1747 dans le corps des Ponts et Chaussées, où il devait s'illustrer jusqu'à sa mort. Il commença par être nommé ingénieur de la Généralité de Tours en 1751, et c'est dans ce poste qu'il construisit le Pont de Saumur en 1756. Puis il devint ingénieur en chef, d'abord à Alençon (1757), puis à Rouen (1776), où il établit une partie des quais, en même temps qu'il travaillait aux ports de Dieppe, du Tréport et du Havre. En 1781, il fut chargé de travailler au môle de Cherbourg. Promu ingénieur général en 1783, il demanda à être relevé de ses fonctions en 1791. Sa dernière réalisation fut cependant, à Paris, le célèbre Pont des Arts bâti en 1801.Exceptionnel exemplaire au chiffre de Denis Decrès (1761-1820), ministre de la Marine de 1801 à 1814. Quoique ce D sommé de l'aigrette des ducs pût aussi convenir à Duroc, Grand Maréchal du Palais, la présence d'ancres marines dans la décoration fait pencher en faveur du marin de façon quasi certaine. Frère I, 206.
