The Effects of Long-time Strong Wave Condition on Breakwater Construction

In this paper, long-time strong wave condition is defined according to the comparison between the China's Ocean and the Indian Ocean, as well the characteristic of long-time strong wave condition is described. Combined with practical works, the effects of long-time strong wave condition on breakwater construction are analyzed. Some specific construction measures, including placement of rock material, wave prediction and breakwater head protection during construction period, are introduced. Some valuable references are provided for similar projects in the future.
