Synopsis

Principles And Practice Of Harbor Construction is a comprehensive guide to the design, construction, and maintenance of harbors, written by William Shield and originally published in 1895. The book covers a wide range of topics related to harbor engineering, including the selection of harbor sites, the design of breakwaters and piers, the dredging of channels and basins, and the construction of quays and wharves. Shield also discusses the importance of understanding the natural forces that affect harbors, such as waves, tides, and currents, and provides guidance on how to mitigate their effects. In addition, the book includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the concepts presented. Overall, Principles And Practice Of Harbor Construction is a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and anyone involved in the planning and construction of ports and harbors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
