Beach Nourishment Techniques ; Report 1
Author: Thomas W. RichardsonPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Beach erosion
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
This report presents the results of the first two phases of a research project aimed at developing new dredging systems for beach nourishment from offshore sources. As an introduction to the subject matter, the current situation in the United States regarding beach nourishment and offshore dredging equipment is outlined. Example nourishment projects accomplished and the range of equipment used to date. Next, the engineering considerations involved in selecting an optimum nourishment system for a particular project or project category are presented, and their effects on system characteristics are discussed. The main body of the report presents the results of an investigation into equipment suitable for offshore nourishment work. Approximately 50 examples are described illustrating dredge types, pipelines, connections, and miscellaneous pieces of equipment. The examples are divided into the main categories 'existing' and 'proposed' and subdivided according to design concept. The final portion of the report consists of the selection of certain equipment subcategories for further consideration and the construction of possible offshore nourishment systems using this selected equipment. A logic network is presented outlining these possible systems, and their projected uses are discussed. Future phases of the research project are outlined. The report includes approximately 45 illustrations and 85 references directly related to offshore dredging and beach nourishment. (Author).
Offshore Technology in Civil Engineering
Author: J. S. TempletonPublisher: ASCE Publications

Book Description
This book contains nine classic papers from the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), which is the world's leading event for the development of offshore resources in the fields of drilling, exploration, production, and environmental protection. These papers provide innovation in, vision for, and lasting impact on design, construction or installation of offshore infrastructure, and have influence far beyond the offshore industry, some becoming integral to the design process of onshore structures such as buildings and bridges. The ASCE OTC Committee have chosen these classic documents to represent the outstanding papers from the early years of the OTC that withstand test of time. They contain engineering methods that have proven their value through widespread use, permeating codes, standards, guidelines and engineering software. Topics include: wave force evaluation; ultimate strength and reverse capacity; tubular joint material and design; pile foundations; and pipeline installation.
