Improving Stone Placement Specifications

by David D. Sanders, W.F. Baird & Associates, Ltd, Madison, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Durability of Stone for Rubble Mound Breakwaters

Abstract:

Thorough preparation of stone placement specifications can go a long way toward keeping projects on track. But developing well-prepared placement specifications is not easy. It requires an understanding of the importance of placement specifications in the project process, an awareness of common placement specification pitfalls, and a concentrated effort to improve the way these specifications are written. The paper addresses these issues.
