Laboratory study of effect of groins on rate of littoral transport: equipment development and initial tests
Waves were generated to impinge obliquely on sand beach in outdoor laboratory wave basin; alongshore movement of sand due to wave action, both with and without groins, is trapped and measured; procedures and equipment for trapping, measuring and transporting entrapped sand to updrift end of beach; cumulative weight of sand movement relative to test duration, relative weight of sand trapped in different profile zones, and physical changes to profile and beach and bottom contours, are graphically presented.
