Design considerations for subaqueous capping in Hamilton Harbour : distribution of sand on harbour bottom during cap placement / J.E. Graham and A.J. Zeman.: En13-5/92-52E-PDF
"The technique of subaqueous capping requires precise placement of a cap of clean isolating material in order to contain the contaminated sediments properly. The report examines several aspects of the placement methods for the sand cap. These include the cap radius, the maximum slug layer thickness, the horizontal displacement of sand due to depth-averaged currents, the number of layers needed for the required cap thickness and the distribution thickness of a slug layer on the harbour bottom for specific water depths and grain sizes. The results presented in the report will be verified, by core sampling and visual inspection, during a monitoring program which will play an important role in the pilot-scale demonstration project"--Management Perspective.
