This guide updates and replaces CIRIA B13 published in 1992. A significant amount of the material used in the original publication, particularly with respect to the history and types of old waterfront walls, has been incorporated into this publication.
Old waterfront walls are defined as gravity walls of masonry, concrete blockwork, brickwork or mass concrete with vertical or near vertical exposed faces fronting on to the sea, river, canals, lakes or dock. They can be composed of thin masonry facings to rock or cohesive soil, but exclude revetments, sloping sea defences, dams, sheet piled walls and reinforced concrete structures. This guide contains an overview of how old waterfront walls were constructed and provides details on how to effectively manage and maintain them through inspections and inspections.
