APPLICATION OF THE STOCK MANAGEMENT AND PROPOSAL OF MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN THE FISHING PORT FACILITIES

Abstract

  Fishing port facilities are the main coastal structures in fishery area forming large stocks for which a considerable degradation is concerned. Introduction of the stock management capable of reducing the life cycle cost and enhancing the life and durability of the existing structures is expected. This paper discusses the future prospects and problems with the stock management when applied to the fishing port on the basis of the actual operations. For a smooth introduction of the stock management to the fishing port facilities, a series of systematic measures are introduced including accumulation/utilization of the surveillance data, appropriate diagnosis of the degradation, rational prediction/countermeasures for the degradation, and estimation/yearly stabilization of the LCC.
