Written for engineers and technicians, its aim is to increase understanding of: How dike systems work. The risks faced. Surveillance and maintenance operations. It also aims to explain the reasons for and describe the work to be done to ensure the long-term future and safety of such structures, given water resource legislation in France. Produced upon the initiative of the French Ministry of the Environment (water resources department), this book was written by Cemagref, under the guidance of, and with contributions from, a working party. 606 $aDikes (Engineering)$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aWaterways$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 606 $aDikes (Engineering)$xMaintenance and repair 610 0$aFlood control 615 0$aDikes (Engineering) 615 0$aWaterways 615 0$aDikes (Engineering)$xMaintenance and repair. 700 $aMe?riaux$b Patrice$0856597 701 $aRoyet$b Paul$0977406 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350204503321 996 $aSurveillance, maintenance and diagnosis of flood protection dikes$92226502 997 $aUNINA
