Synopsis

This manual is intended for use by practising civil engineers with some experience of coastal conditions where protection against wind-generated waves is one of the dominant design considerations. The non-specialist could find it useful in that it aims to provide the user with an understanding of the principles and procedures involved. The manual sets out an integrated approach to the planning and design process by considering a range of related parameters, such as environmental implications and the availability of materials, alongside basic engineering requirements. Produced jointly by CIRIA and CUR (Centre for Civil Engineering Research and Codes) in the Netherlands, the manual reflects British and Dutch national and international experience.
