By Naval Sea Systems Command

U.S. Navy Salvage Manual - Volume 1 - Strandings, Harbor Clearance, and Afloat Salvage S0300-A6-MAN-010 - 31 MAY 2013 This volume is the first in a series of four related publications that comprise the U.S. Navy Salvage Manual. The series collectively replaces the three volumes of the U.S. Navy Salvage Manual issued between 1968 and 1973. Volume 1 begins with the basic foundation of naval architecture and its application to marine salvage. The salvor must have a firm grasp of the principles of naval architecture to understand how ships will react as they grapple with various salvage problems and to safeguard personnel and equipment. The discussion then expands to salvage of sunken ships, objects and/or wreck removal, and port opening/harbor clearance. The manual concludes with the discussion of time critical afloat salvage of ships dealing with major fires, battle damage, or other serious casualties. The manual presents practical information and specific techniques previously employed to solve real problems associated with actual salvage operations.
