Maritime structures

The British Standards Institution (BSI) has published BS 6349-1-1: Code of practice for planning and design for operations.

It gives recommendations and guidance on general criteria relevant to the planning, design, construction and maintenance of structures and facilities set in the maritime environment. This British Standard also takes into account environmental and operational matters that should be considered during the planning and design phase of maritime works, with a specific focus on ensuring that operations and maintenance design considerations are transferred into the planning and implementation of the completed works.
