The crack analysis in monitoring procedures of Seaport pier concrete constructions

The geodetic and geotechnical techniques were accepted for monitoring and measurement of unique hydro-technical structures, i.e. of pier stability. The designed monitoring system for pier damage prevention has been realized at the experimental object of Klaipeda State Seaport. Cracks of pier concrete constructions were identified, measured and continuously observed by the application of crack-gauges for experimental measurement. The analysis of the results shows that cracks of chosen locations depend upon meteorological conditions, such as, for example, temperature. It influences the width of cracks in the pier concrete. The relations were obtained according to the created monitoring system of hydro-technical structure which estimates the influence of cracks of pier concrete to the structural damages

The Importance of creating sustainable cities

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were formulated and adopted in the new Sustainable Development Agenda issued by United Nations in 2015, adopted by all its Member States. It was designed as a pathway to act as a global partnership to try to put an end to poverty, to protect the planet and to ensure the well-being of all its population. One of the main points is the importance of the commitment that all affected parts must adopt, including governments, cities and local authorities, but also the private sector, the media, the unions, the academia and other stakeholders, as well as the civil communities, with a great importance of its younger members
