Description: Technical note
PURPOSE: This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) provides a method to calculate damage progression on a rubble-mound breakwater, revetment, or jetty trunk armor layer. The methods apply to uniform-sized armor stone (0.75W50 ≤ W50 ≤ 1.25W50, W50 = median weight of armor stone) as well as riprap (0.125W50 ≤ W50 ≤ 4W50) exposed to depth-limited wave conditions.
