A compendium of knowledge and technology relating to scour processes in all earth materials Structures built in or near rivers and other channels can be vulnerable to scour around their foundations. If the depth of the scour becomes significant, the stability of the foundations may be endangered, with a consequent risk of damage or failure of the structure. There have been several bridge failures, resulting in transport disruption, economic loss and, on occasion, loss of life. The factors influencing scour are complex and vary according to the type of structure. Protection for preventing scour needs to be designed to withstand the flow forces imposed on them and have to be practical to build and install, while minimizing adverse environmental effects. This book covers the entire Scour Technology area and is prepared by one of the leading experts on the subject.
"Robert WDay of American Geotechnical, San Diego, CA. In accordance with your request. I have reviewed the proposed list of topics and chapter headings for the Scour Handbook. The advantages of such a book are as follows: 1. There is a need for scour handbooks. They seem to be popular books that will be purchased by civil engineers, soils engineers, and hydrologists. 2. The book outline is well thought out and presents an in-depth discussion of all major topics. 3. The author has published 6 books, which means he should be well experienced in completing the book on time and in a professional manner. I would recommend publication."
