Abstract

The engineer is constantly called upon to make an economic analysis of proposed engineering works. His analysis is just as trustworthy as his base information. In some cases experience and knowledge are so complete that an estimate can be accepted with assurance of great accuracy. The purpose of this paper is to discuss some of the factors involved in making an economic analysis of coastal structures.
