520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Examines the effects of climate change and extreme weather conditions on civil engineering. Outlines climate change predictions such as rising temperatures, heavier rainfall and rising sea levels and suggests that these will increase the frequency of extreme environmental events such as land slips and seawall overtopping. Looks at the problem of cliff erosion and failing sea defences and provides protection techniques for engineers. Suggests that structural design codes have generally proved reliable but that existing structures may need to be strengthened to cope with changes in rainfall patterns. Also looks at the design and construction of embankments, the impact of flooding for building owners and whether climate change should affect construction contracts.
