Effects of Sea Surf on Gabion Retaining Walls
The article presents the results of long-term observations of the destruction of a long gabion retaining wall at the base of a high coastal slope, under the influence of frontal sea waves. The destruction scheme is not consistent with the destruction scheme adopted in the normative literature as a result of stability under active soil pressure. The destruction of a stepped vertical wall occurs mainly as a result of the rupture of the metal mesh and the removal of stone material from the structure by the recoiling wave. The increasing strength of storms and the direction of the wind, in turn, are associated with global climate change. Analyzing the situation, the author comes to the conclusion that in the process of operation, the structure, despite its own destruction, made it possible to preserve the coastline and carry out work to strengthen the surface of the slope, subject to landslide and suffusion processes.
