Book Description
A fixed-bed model of Matagorda Bay was constructed to scale ratios of 1:1000 horizontally and 1:100 vertically as an aid in developing a sound engineering design of the project, including selection of the optimum channel location, design of protective works for the channel, and determination of changes in the hydraulic and salinity regimens that would occur as a result of natural and man-made changes. Several modifications of the basic plan were tested including various lengths of jetties and dikes, with and without assumed accretions; various alignments and side slopes of the entrance channel; and several arrangements of spoil disposal banks. Tests were also conducted to determine the effects on the hydraulic and salinity regimens of the bay of changes in prototype conditions brought about by hurricane and flood conditions, and of future enlargements of the project as may be required by navigation interests.

Book Description
With today's problems surrounding shoreline protection, this book should be of great assistance. This manual contains a compilation of 2 Navy and 2 Corps manuals all relative to the subject of coastal protection and the affects tidal action has on our shorelines. The titles included are: Coastal Protection is a U.S. Navy publication which deals specifically with waves and their characteristics. In order to prepare safe designs, the normal and extreme waves which will act against the structure must be evaluated so that a design wave can be selected. Pilebuck takes the user through this phase into the application of data to actual design of breakwaters and seawalls. Storm Surge Analysis: High tides and wind-generated waves combine to provide a potential for abnormally high water levels and flooding during hurricanes or other serious storms. An understanding of this phenomena is essential in order to plan control structures or design others.
