Evento
ASCE Seattle Section Ports and Harbors Committee Monthly Dinner
Speaker: Bruce Ostbo, PE, SE, Vice President, Moffatt & Nichol, Seattle, WA
Bruce Ostbo leads Moffatt & Nichol's Seattle office and is a licensed civil and structural engineer and commercial diver with 33 years of experience managing the planning, inspection, repair and upgrade design, new design, and design-build process of waterfront, marine, and bridge structures. He is a member of several ASCE port-related committees and is a contributing author to the ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 130, Waterfront Facilities Inspection, Standard Practice Manual.
Topic: Waterfront Facilities Inspection and Assessment
Waterfront infrastructure represents a significant investment and owners have a vested interest in maintaining and extending the service life of these aging assets. Exposed to the harsh marine environment, these assets are subject to degradation more than most non-marine assets. In addition, most owners are interested in protecting life safety and the environment through proactive and cost-effective maintenance.
Recognizing these drivers, the ASCE/COPRI Ports & Harbors Committee's Waterfront Inspection Task Committee has developed a new manual to guide the inspection of waterfront assets. The new manual, "Waterfront Facilities Inspection and Assessment Standard Practice Manual," provides comprehensive guidance for the inspection and maintenance of waterfront structures both above water and underwater, as well as associated mooring hardware, fender systems, utilities, and appurtenant features.
The intent of the manual is to provide owners and specifiers with guidance on what type of inspection to choose for a particular facility need, making the process simpler and more uniform since the scope of each inspection type is defined. The result is a standardized process that will assist owners in maintaining their waterfront assets and extending the service life proactively.
The presentation will provide a brief overview of the purpose and need for the manual, the scope, the new topics introduced, cutting-edge and controversial topics, and the content of the manual.
