Problems raised by use of Tetrapods in Arctic waters are illustrated by Svartoksen breakwater in Berlevaag, Norway; breakwater armor is built of 15-ton (6.3 cu m) Tetrapods with 2 rows of 15-ton cubic blocks forming platform for mobile crane operating at +6.20 level and crest works between +6.20 and +8.00 levels consist of 4 15-ton cubic blocks placed from breakwater head; model tests carried out to determine final profile to be adopted for rebuilt structure.
