Design of Marine Facilities for the Berthing, Mooring, and Repair of Vessels
Author: John W. Gaythwaite (Author) | Size: 0 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers; 2 edition | Year: September 17, 2004 | pages: 531 | ISBN: 0784407266, 9780784407264
This valuable handbook for practicing engineers covers the design of marine structures for the berthing, mooring, and repair of vessels, including piers, wharves, bulkheads, quaywalls, dolphins, dry docks, floating docks, and various ancillary structures. Descriptions of vessel characteristics, dry dock types, and inspection, as well as assessment of existing facilities are all incorporated in this comprehensive marine facilities reference. At the end of each chapter, in-depth references are provided so that a given subject can be readily explored. Important design standards, 197 line drawings and 53 photos, as well as numerous graphs and tables for quick reference are incorporated in the book. Civil and structural engineers involved in port and harbor structures design will find this book an excellent introductory text because it covers all structural types that are likely to be encountered in port, harbor, and marine terminal designs.

Guide to Storage Tanks and Equipment
2004 | 588 pages | ISBN:1860584314 | PDF | 8 Mb
Guide to Storage Tanks and Equipment has been designed to provide practical information about all aspects of the design, selection and use of vertical cylindrical storage tanks. Other tanks are covered but in less detail. Although the emphasis is on practical information, basic theory is also covered.

Grunf and peixoto have done a great job. The eurocodes thread is now crystal clear (No duplicate posts, cross references, old versions, spam, etc).:yes:
But should it be closed? In my opininon there is more work to be done.
You can not apply the eurocodes without having the National Application Documents (NAD) which are different for every country. In the past there were cases you had to obtain the code again because the NAD was not published seperately. Not sure what is the current status.
I am proposing to reopen the thread so that we can exchane NAD's.
Also some of the references and the bibliograhy of the eurocodes are very hard to find. Perhaps they could be posted also.

Introduction
Over the last four decades, many man-made earth-structures have undergone catastrophic failures due
to earthquake-induced liquefaction. Eleven tailings dams failed during and after the 28 March 1965
Chilean earthquake. The most devastating were the failures of El-Cobre dams which destroyed part of
the El-Cobre town and claimed more than 200 lives (Dobry and Alvarez, 1967). Similar failures also
occurred in Japan in 1978. Two tailings dams associated with the Mochikoshi gold mine failed causing
a release of large volume of tailings materials.
On 9 February 1971, an earthquake of magnitude 6.6 on the Richter scale hit the San Fernando Valley,
California. One of the major effects of this earthquake was the damage inflicted on the Lower and the
Upper Sand Fernando Dams due to liquefaction induced deformations (Seed et al., 1973). Liquefaction
of the hydraulic fill materials within the body of the dam caused a flow slide to occur on the upstream
part of the Lower Dam, leaving only about 1.5m of freeboard . In the Upper Dam, the slide
movements resulting from liquefaction of the hydraulic fill within the dam were not as severe as those
in the Lower Dam. However, the crest of the dam moved about a.5m downstream and settled about
0.8m. Fortunately in both cases, no water was released from the reservoir .
