This report reviews the history of concrete ships and vessels over the past 130 years. The experience in the design, construction, and operation of concrete vessels is also examined. Future trends and potential applications of concrete vessels are presented. The historical review and operational experience reveal that concrete is an ideal material for ships and vessels because it is economical, durable, water tight, easy to repair, excellent seaworthiness, and less affected by fire and explosion. The growing sophistication of prestressed concrete design and precasting construction techniques should improve confidence in the use of concrete and enhance prospects for the full utilization of its potential in many types of future concrete vessels.

The leading authority in the field offers a unique and comprehensive treatment of the construction aspects of offshore structures, rather than the more commonly addressed design considerations. Extensively updated, this second edition provides a new chapter on extending offshore technologies to inland waterways and emphasizes recent advances-including floating structures, deep-water structures, ice-resistant structures, and bridge foundations. Construction of Marine and Offshore Structures details all the particulars of building in a marine environment, including construction equipment, marine operations, installing piles, pipelines, and cables, steel and concrete offshore platforms, and underwater repairs. Construction of Marine and Offshore Structures provides an essential reference to engineers in the oil and service industries and to marine construction planners, designers, and contractors. New in the second edition: How the physical environment and geotechnical conditions affect construction Increased attention to protecting the natural environment and compliance with regulatory provisions Recent developments in positioning, instrumentation, and underwater inspection, plus a new section on concrete and steel floating structures and installing permanent moorings Expanded treatment of deep water bridge piers as well as locks and dams on major rivers.

"This book grows out of a conference entitled 'Concrete Ships and Vessels,' held on the University of California Berkeley campus September 15-19, 1975, and presented by Continuing Education in Engineering, University Extension, and the College of Engineering. The material published here goes beyond the proceedings of the conference, and includes additional papers that were presented. The need for this book is clear, containing as it does the latest views and data for the construction and classification of concrete vessels. Professor Ben C. Gerwick, Jr. one of the organizers of the conference, graciously agreed to act as editor and has worked closely with University Extension in the publication process. Continuing Education in Engineering offers many such conferences during the course of a year, each bringing together the best in the field to exchange information and develop new directions for application and research. This conference was in that tradition and I believe this book to be a genuine contribution to the continuing progress of concrete technology in its maritime uses. Raymond C. Grassi, Chairman, Continuing Education in Engineering, University Extension, University of California, Berkeley."--Foreword.
