1991. Marine practice for large offshore structures

Civil Engineers dealing with large offshore structures have to take into account any marine operations which are necessary to turn a structure, built in sheltered waters, into an actual offshore structure, towed to and installed in the open sea, during the design phase, The Concrete Sea Structures Commission felt that advice and recommendations should be produced to help these designers and to avoid misunderstandings between them and the marine operators.

This Guide in meant to fulfit these needs and complements the FIP Recommendations for the Design and Construction of Concrete Sea Structures. It contains clear, concise and valuable information about the different phases making up marine operations during the construction period.
