Shore protection using stones enclosed in nets
Abstract Shore lines are commonly protected by stone revetments, rubble mound groins or breakwaters. When the erosive forces of waves are larger, large stones or concrete blocks of special shapes for good interlocking are placed on the surface over underlayers of stones of smaller size. A protective surface of stones enclosed in nets underlain by a gravel filter was tested and compared with the usual protection in the laboratory. The size of stones needed within the enclosing net was relatively very small and the volume of stones was reduced considerably as compared to that in the case of loose stones. With the development of strong and durable synthetic fibres there is scope for enclosing stones in nets for effective use in protection of the higher part of beaches.
