The study is an updated version of the 1979 Port Handbook for Estimating Marine Terminal Cargo Handling Capability. The handbook provides a method of estimating the annual cargo throughput capability of ports and terminals in the U.S. The handbook methodology has several potential applications. It can be used in planning for new terminal facilities. For existing facilities, it can assist in developing expansion plans or in evaluating current performance.
