Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes work conducted to examine issues related to the CSA/CAN S474 Code for Fixed Offshore Concrete Structures, divided into two phases: examination of the appropriateness of the 1.35 load factor specified for use on the 1 in 100 year iceberg for the design of the concrete strength; and examination of the load combination factors specified in the Code for rare environmental events occurring along with companion frequent environmental events. Sections describing phase I discuss the principles and computer programs used to determine iceberg loadings, the design of a force analysis model and the subsequent force analysis, analyze the structure for the reliability level under iceberg loads, and present an economic analysis for the different load factors. Sections describing phase II discuss methodology and theory used to calculate environmental loads, introduce computer analysis methods, and present analytical results including final calculated environmental loads and resulting calculated load combination factors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on fundamental principles, Hydro-Environmental Analysis: Freshwater Environments presents in-depth information about freshwater environments and how they are influenced by regulation. It provides a holistic approach, exploring the factors that impact water quality and quantity, and the regulations, policy and management methods that are necessary to maintain this vital resource. It offers a historical viewpoint as well as an overview and foundation of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics affecting the management of freshwater environments. The book concentrates on broad and general concepts, providing an interdisciplinary foundation. The author covers the methods of measurement and classification; chemical, physical, and biological characteristics; indicators of ecological health; and management and restoration. He also considers common indicators of environmental health; characteristics and operations of regulatory control structures; applicable laws and regulations; and restoration methods. The text delves into rivers and streams in the first half and lakes and reservoirs in the second half. Each section centers on the characteristics of those systems and methods of classification, and then moves on to discuss the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of each. In the section on lakes and reservoirs, it examines the characteristics and operations of regulatory structures, and presents the methods commonly used to assess the environmental health or integrity of these water bodies. It also introduces considerations for restoration, and presents two unique aquatic environments: wetlands and reservoir tailwaters. Written from an engineering perspective, the book is an ideal introduction to the aquatic and limnological sciences for students of environmental science, as well as students of environmental engineering. It also serves as a reference for engineers and scientists involved in the management, regulation, or restoration of freshwater environments.
