Description

This guide covers all aspects of seawall design from the broader issues of coastal management and other options for coastal defence and environmental assessment, through to problem definition, project planning, data collection and interpretation, conceptual and detailed design, design for construction and maintenance, materials, financial and economic considerations. It helps the reader in respect of the various potential problems, their definition, possible solutions, the establishment of key functional requirements of a seawall, and the methods of designing to take due account of engineer, environmental and economic considerations. It is intended to publicise and assist with good design practice, to identify limitations in design, to give guidance on data collection, assisting readers to develop site-specific solutions.
