For two decades, Ben Gerwicks ability to capture the current state of practice and present it in a straightforward, easily digestible manner has made this book the reference of choice for modern civil and maritime construction engineers. This third edition of the perennial bestseller continues to be the most modern and authoritative guide in the field. Updated and expanded to reflect new technologies, methods, and materials, the book includes new information on topics such as liquefaction of loose sediments, scour and erosion, archaeological concerns, high-performance steel, ultra high-performance concrete, steel H piles, and damage from sabotage and terrorism. It features coverage of LNG terminals and offshore wind and wave energy structures. Clearly, concisely, and accessibly, this book guides you away from the pitfalls and toward the successful implementation of principles that can bring your marine and offshore projects to life.
