Whether the interest in scour hazard assessment is related to the foundation structures and the cabling necessary for in-field transmission and power export associated with offshore renewables developments or it is related to pipelines, seawalls or breakwaters, this course will introduce the necessary methods for assessing and mitigating the risk. In addition, the course will introduce an approach to assessing scour risk in complex soils.

The course will cover the following elements:

• overview and analysis techniques: Scour hazard assessment, marine soils
• estimating scour at marine structures: pipelines (2D), piles, complex structures, structures in complex soils
• estimating scour at seawalls and breakwaters: seawalls, breaking waves, breakwater trunk, breakwater head
• scour countermeasures: types, rock armour, mattresses, placement, monitoring.
