Your assignment
The design of the rehabilitation of the breakwater has the following objectives:
• Design a cross section for either the extension or for the part in front of the container terminal
• Describe how you would build this breakwater

your assignment
• Design a breakwater cross section (A or B)• With the given material (rock, Xblock, etc)• For a maintenance free breakwater• With a life time of 20 years or 50 years
• Determine armour unit size • Determine overall sizes of cross section (e.g. crest
height)• Make a drawing good enough for a cost estimate• Design toe, etc.

Type of calculation
• Determine near shore boundary data with SwanOne• Use classical approach, and preferably also PIANC
approach and probabilistic approach• Use Breakwat and/or Cress for calculations• Make a short report (5 pages of text) including some
info on the execution method
