Coastal Engineering Manual Project homepage. In each course, significant use was made of the new Coastal Engineering Manual (CEM), currently under development by the USACE/CHL. When completed, this document will serve as the primary reference for Coastal Engineering. The CEM is the replacement manual for the existing Shore Protection Manual. Participants received limited-license versions (for use during courses) of the interactive CEM and the Coastal Engineering Design and Analysis System (CEDAS) software, courtesy of Veri-Tech, Inc., Vicksburg, MS, USA.
