Design of Coastal Revetments, Seawalls, and Bulkheads - Engineering and Design

In areas subject to wind-driven waves and surge, this 1995 manual provides guidance for the design of structures such as revetments, seawalls, and bulkheads, commonly employed either to combat erosion or to maintain development at an advanced position from the natural shoreline. Proper performance of such structures is predicated on close adherence to established design guidance. This manual presents important design considerations and describes commonly available materials and structural components.
