This course builds on the Introduction to Port Engineering course provided in the first module. It gets into detail about wave theories, Morison's equation, mooring and berthing, design of fixed structures/topsides, submerged pipelines, rehabilitation of geriatric structures, and some basic marine geotechnical issues. Components of a "basis of design" for marine structures will be provided. Reference material will provide a toolbox for further study and prepare the student for entry into the field of port engineering.

This course is one of ASCE's new Guided Online Courses that are highly interactive, instructor-led programs in which learners move through a 12-week learning experience with their peers. The content includes video lectures, interactive exercises, case studies, and weekly discussion topics to help master the course material. Unlimited 24/7 accessibility to weekly modules.
