The Half-loc: Optimized Middle Armor Block
The rubble mound coastal structure covered with artificial armor units has been accepted worldwide. However, since it is hard to obtain big stones in the field, the stones placed under the upper layer of Tetrapod, Dolos, Accropode, Core-loc etc. do not usually satisfy the design requirement of weight in the case of large waves. This circumstance has required the development of a middle armor block. In this study, a new shape of block, which can replace the stone as a filter layer, has been developed firstly in the world.
