Description: | Technical note PURPOSE: This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) summarizes the effectiveness of a wide-crested, submerged, dimensioned, rubble-mound breakwater matrix based on physical model testing conducted at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Vicksburg, MS. The shore protection concept was designed as an innovative alternative to traditional rubble-mound breakwaters for the purpose of shoreline stability at the National Shoreline Erosion Control Development and Demonstration (Section 227) Program’s Sheldon Marsh demonstration project location. |
