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.

Book Description
At the FIP Symposiu m on Concrete Sea Structures, which was held on 28-29 September 1 972 in Tbilisi, Georgia, the participants unanimously agreed that c oncrete was bound to play a major if not the leading part in the rapidly developing field of offshore construction. It was also agreed that the discovery of oil and gas in the North Sea had produced an immediate and exciting challenge in the demand for the construction of fixed structures in marine environments which, in terms of hostile natura! forces, would far exceed anything tackled by engineers to date. It was therefore decided to set up an FIP Commission on Concrete Sea Structures under the chairmanship of Mr Fr,óde Hansen which would report to the FIP Seventh Congress in New York in May 1974 . It seemed natura! to divide the tasks of the Commission into three working groups: Design, Materials, and Construction Methods. It soon became apparent that the demands for structures subjected to deep and hostile waters were so great and so pressing that it was decided to accelerate the work of the Design and Materials Working Groups, and to produce the first edition of these Recommendations before the New York Congres s . The Chairmen for the two Working Groups were Mr Kurt Eriksson and Dr Odd Gjprv respectively. The publication of these Recommendations has been made possible by the li vely interest of these two groups and by the valuable assistance of Mr D. Palmer and Mr B. Spratt of the C ement and Concrete Association and Mr M. D. Hazen of Sir Robert McAlpine & Sons Ltd. The Recommendations have been published with the approval of the FIP Administrati ve Council. The work of the Construction Methods Working Group has not been included in this edition since practical construction experience in this most challenging field is still quite limited. The successful completion of the Ekofisk Storage Tank has added tremendously to obtaining practical experience, and this, with the fact that two larger concrete offshore platforms will soon be under c onstruction, offers the promise that future editions will be augmented by some very valuable practical construction experience.
Offshore Structure Modeling

Book Description
While the existing literature on offshore structures touch on model testing, a comprehensive text discussing the design, construction, instrumentation, testing and analysis of the physical model is lacking. This book fills that vacuum and provides, through its survey of the theoretical and practical aspects of physical modeling, an in-depth coverage of the technology of model testing. Its usefulness runs through the entire field of engineering, reaching far beyond its focus on offshore construction; and its breadth of scope should appeal not only to engineers and naval architects but to scientists interested in structural or hydraulic testing as well.
