基本説明

The art of designing quay walls is in the representation of the interaction of various parts of the structure and the underlying geological formation. This book serves as a supportive source of information in this respect and provides an extended overview of the knowledge and experience in the area of the design, construction and management of quay walls.

Full Description


Essential knowledge for the planning, design, execution and maintenance of quay walls, plus general information about historic developments and lessons gained from observation of ports in various countries. Technical chapters are followed by a detailed calculation of a quay wall, based on semi-probabilistic design procedure, which applies the theory presented earlier. Quay Walls will interest anyone involved in the design, construction and use of quay walls, including designers, contractors, engineers, operators and managers. It also provides a rich source of basic information for students and professionals.
