8.11 Summary In this chapter we were concerned with shorelines that consisted of a sandy beach. The focus was those nearshore processes that shaped a beach, both in plan and profile. We also considered the impact of typical coastal structures on beach processes–how to predict these effects and, where there were negative effects, how to overcome these negative effects. Much of coastal engineering relies on design methods that have a strong empirical component (e.g., wave and water level prediction, wave interaction with structures, analysis of the response of coastal structures to wave attack, and prediction of beach processes and their response to coastal structures). Development of these design methodologies therefore requires physical measurements, either in a laboratory or the Weld and often both. This is the focus of the remaining chapter in this text.
