definitive guide to the layout, design and construction of harbours
and port structures. Fully in line with the latest PIANC

design from the impact of natural conditions on harbours, to health
and safety, and the maintenance and repair of port structures as
well as channel and harbour basins. . Particular attention is given
to the impact from ships, including berthing requirements, ship
dimension tables and container terminals. This fully revised
edition has also seen the material updated to provide coverage of -
new design and construction methods of the quay structures -
floating berth structures for large vessels - detailed evaluation
of the necessary mooring system - evaluation of the bollard system
and layout - new design and evaluation of the fender system
according to the new PIANC recommendation - concrete in port
structures - and much more. With an intuitive layout where the

methods, Carl A. Thoresen's guide is an essential purchase for all
practicing port and harbour engineers, designers and contractors,
as well as students new to this continually developing area.
