Book Repair  Evaluation  Maintenance  and Rehabilitation Research Program  Inspection of the Engineering Condition of Underwater Concrete Structures

Download or read book Repair Evaluation Maintenance and Rehabilitation Research Program Inspection of the Engineering Condition of Underwater Concrete Structures written by Sandor Popovics and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All civil works structures must be continually evaluated for structural safety, stability, and operational adequacy. This is particularly true for underwater structures partially because it is more difficult to establish existing damages than it is for structures above the water; and partially because the underwater failure of many structures, such as dams, can produce very serious loss of lives and property. The overall objective of this report is to present organized information essential to the evaluation and monitoring of the engineering condition needed for continued safety of underwater civil works structures. Specific objectives are: (a) to summarize the typical types of deterioration that occur in underwater concreate structures; (b) to provide engineering guidelines for inspecting the condition of underwater structures: and (c) to provide guidelines for interpreting inspection data. As recommended in the report, the inspection and evaluation of the engineering condition of underwater structures are preceded by a comprehensive review of the design of the structure and the construction techniques and materials used as well as its operation and maintenance history. Information is obtained from available engineering data on the structure and from onsite investigation. This report summarizes these activities, pertinent inspection procedures and techniques, and methods of evaluation used by the Corps of Engineers and the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. Methods and procedures that were developed by other agencies and individuals for the evaluation of concreate civil works structures are also included. (SDW).

Book Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures

Download or read book Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures written by John V. Sharp and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNDERWATER INSPECTION AND REPAIR FOR OFFSHORE STRUCTURES Benefit from a much-needed, up-to-date handbook on underwater inspection and repair processes and technologies Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures fills a gap in the literature to provide an overview of the inspection and repair processes for both steel and concrete offshore structures. Authors and noted experts on the topic John V. Sharp and Gerhard Esdal guide readers through the reasons why inspection and repair are performed and how both are linked to the management of structural integrity, statutory requirements, and various types of damage. The book addresses critical topics, including the execution and planning of inspection and repair, the tools and methods used, and their deployment underwater. The authors put particular focus on steel and concrete offshore oil and gas installations, but the content is also applicable to the substructures of offshore wind turbines. Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures is complementary to the authors’ book Ageing and Life Extension of Offshore Structures, also from Wiley. This important book: Covers current inspection and monitoring techniques to evaluate existing structures Includes coverage of robotic (ROV) inspection and repair methods Provides an overview of repair and maintenance techniques applicable to the splash‑zone and underwater operations Written for engineers, designers, and safety auditors working with offshore structures. Underwater Inspection and Repair for Offshore Structures is a comprehensive resource for understanding how to effectively inspect and repair these vulnerable structures.

Editorial Group on Inspection and Maintenance of Structures and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1986 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast extent of the investment in concrete structures in modern times has emphasized the need to maintain these structures in a systematic manner, so that they retain their structural integrity and full usefulness. Such maintenance must be preceded by regular and thorough inspection. This Guide to Good Practice describes the many types of damage - slight or more serious - which may be discovered and the equipment used to carry out inspections. Suggested inspection intervals, related to the severity of loadings and environmental conditions, are given.
