Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first phase of the investigation, which dealt with the design of quarry-stone cover layers, is described. For the laboratory tests, small-scale rubble-mound breakwater sections are hand-constructed in a concrete flume 119 ft long, 5 ft wide, and 4 ft deep, and subjected to mechanically generated waves. The limit of stability of the armor units forming the protective cover layer is determined as a function of the wave dimensions, slope of exposed breakwater face, weight and specific weight of the armor units, and specific weight of the water in which the test sections are situated. Tests have also been conducted in which damage to the quarry-stone-type cover layer was determined as a function of wave height. Using the experimental data to determine the unknown functions in the derived equation, a new formula was obtained for the weight of armor units required to insure their stability when used as the cover layer of rubble-mound breakwaters. The new breakwater stability formula, and the experimental data obtained to date, provide the essential information for an improved method of designing rubble-mound breakwaters with cover layers composed of quarry stones placed pell-mell.

Book excerpt: The results of tests completed to determine the stability characteristics of concrete quadripods used for protective cover layers on rubble-mound breakwaters are presented in this report. A rubble-mound breakwater is defined as one constructed with a quarry-run stone, sand, or slag core, protected from wave action by one or more stone underlayers and a protective cover layer consisting of selected quarrystone or specially shaped concrete armor units.

This book was released on 1968 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for fundamental data for use in designing rubble-mound breakwaters led to a laboratory investigation to develop design criteria. The first phase of this investigation, which dealt with the design of smooth quarrystone cover layers on breakwater trunks in depths of water sufficient to prevent the breaking of waves due to depth limitation, was described in a previous report by Hudson. The present report is concerned with the design of rubble-mound breakwaters constructed of rough and smooth quarrystones, quadripods, tetrapods, hexapods, tribars, modified cubes, and truncated tetrahedrons. For the tests described herein, the layered type of construction was used for both breakwater trunks and breakwater heads. The small-scale rubble-mound breakwater sections were hand constructed in concrete flumes 119 ft long, 5 and 12.5 ft wide, and 4 ft deep and subjected to mechanically generated waves. The limit of stability of the armor units forming the protective cover layer was determined. Tests were also conducted in which damage to the cover layers was determined as a function of wave height. In these tests wave heights greater than those corresponding to incipient instability were used. When the breakwater slope was steepened, wave runup and wave rundown increased; when the wave steepness decreased, wave runup and wave rundown increased. Measurements were made to determine the average thickness and percentage of voids for all types of armor units used in this investigation. (Author).
