Reef Breakwater Wave-Attenuation and Stability Tests, Burns Waterway Harbor, Indiana

R. D. Carver / B. J. Wright

A two-dimensional model study of a proposed reef breakwater for protection of the existing, damage-prone, rubble-mound breakwater at Burns Waterway Harbor was conducted. Sufficient 1:36-scale undistorted flume tests were conducted such that an optimum submerged reef could be selected. Specifically, it was desired to quantify performance (stability transmission response) in terms of structure height and width, location relative to the existing breakwater, and stone size and gradation. Seven improvement plans were considered. All significantly improved stability of the existing breakwater and reduced transmitted wave heights to some extent.
