STABILITY OF STONE- AND DOLOS-ARMORED, RUBBLE-MOUND BREAKWATER .--
TRUNKS SUBJECTED TO BREAKING WAVES WITH NO OVERTOPPING
PART 1: INTRODUCTION
Background
1. The experimental investigation described herein constitutes a por-
tion of a research effort to provide engineering data for the safe and eco-
nomical design of rubble-mound breakwaters. In this study, a rubble-mound
breakwater is defined as a protective structure constructed with a core of
quarry-run stone, sand, or slag and protected from wave action by one or more
stone underlayers and a cover layer composed of selected quarrystone or spe-
cially shaped concrete armor units.
2. Rubble-mound breakwaters are used extensively throughout the world
to provide protection from the destructive forces of storm waves for harbor
and port facilities. A proposed structure may necessarily be designed for
either nonbreaking or breaking waves depending upon positioning of the break-
water and severity of anticipated wave action during its economic life. Some
local wave conditions may be of such magnitude that the protective cover layer
must consist of specially shaped concrete armor units in order to provide eco-
nomic construction of a stable breakwater; however, many local design require-
ments are most advantageously met by quarrystone armor. This particular re-
port addresses the use of quarrystone and dolos armor on breakwater trunks
subjected to breaking waves.
3. Previous investigations have yielded a significant quantity of de-
sign information for quarrystone (Hudson 1958 and Carver 1980) tetrapods,
quadripods, tribars, modified cubes, hexapods, and modified tetrahedrons
(Jackson 1968), dolosse (Carver and Davidson 1977), and toskane (Carver 1978).
Although all of the above studies were important and filled a need, they were
limited in that test waves were always nonbreaking. A few breaking wave tests
are reported (Hudson 1961), but the breaking wave coefficients presented in
the Shore Protection Manual (U. S. Army CERC 1977) were primarily developed
from adjustments made to nonbreaking wave coefficients as supplemented by
site-specific studies. A comprehensive study to develop general stability co-
efficients for depth-limited breaking waves has not previously been conducted.

Purpose of Study
4. The purpose of the present investigation was to obtain design infor-
mation for stone and dolos armor used on breakwater trunks and subjected to
breaking waves. More specifically, it was desired to determine the minimum
weight of individual armor units (with given specific weights) required for
stability as a function of:
a. Type of armor unit.
b. Sea-side slope of the structure.
c. Wave period.
d. Wave height.
e. Water depth.f. Sea-bottom slope on which the breakwater is constructed.
Also, it was desired to determine the magnitude of wave runup that can be
expected for a selected range of incident wave conditions.

PART II: DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS
Stability of Rubble-Mound Breakwaters
5. When short-period waves attack rubble-mound breakwaters, the inter- iI"." action of the dislodging forces induced by the water motion and the resistive
action of the armor units produce a complex dynamic phenomenon. Previous
attempts to analyze this phenomenon to ascertain the magnitude of the dynamic
forces involved by theoretical analyses have not been successful; however,
coastal scale models/experimental tests of breakwaters can yield accurate de-
sign information that relates the required weight of individual armor units to
breakwater geometry, local bathymetry, wave characteristics, etc.
6. An attempt will be made through the use of dimensional analysis to
develop functional relationships between the primary variables affecting armor
stability. Buckingham's 71 theorem can be used to determine the number of
dimensionless and independent quantities (pi terms) required to express a re-
-. ' lationship among the variables in any phenomenon. Dimensional analysis may
then be used to obtain a suitable set of pi terms.
7. Definitions and characteristic dimensions in terms of force (F),
length (L), and time (T)* of the primary variables affecting armor stability
are as follows:
3"a = specific weight of an armor unit, F/L
W = weight of an armor unit, F
A = shape factor of the armor unit, dimensionless
W = specific weight of water, F/L
H = wave height, L
L = wavelength, L
d = water depth, L
g = acceleration due to gravity, L/T
h = height of breakwater crown, L
= angle of wave attack, dimensionless2
v = kinematic viscosity, L /T
o= angle between the horizontal and the seaward face of thebreakwater, dimensionless
* For convenience, symbols and unusual abbreviations are listed and defined
in the Notation (Appendix A).

8. The present investigation addresses only waves normal to nonover-
topping breakwater sections. Therefore the variables and h are elim-
inated. Also, since a is directly related to the seaward slope of the
breaLwater, this variable can be replaced by cot u where cot t is the
reciprocal of breakwater slope. With these considerations, the list of
variables becomes
Ya = specific weight of an armor unit, F/L3
W = weight of an armor unit, FaA= shape factor of the armor unit, dimensionless
Yw = specific weight of water, F/L3

9. With 13 independent variables and 3 basic dimensions involved, Buck-
ingham's t theorem predicts that armor stability should be a function of 10
dimensionless pi terms. One possible set of pi terms is

Wave Runup
10. Before a breakwater design can be optimized, it is necessary for
the designer to be able to accurately estimate wave runup (Ru ) for the anti-
cipated range of wave conditions to which the structure will be subjected.

Runup data are necessary for selecting a crown elevation that will prevent
excessive wave overtopping.
11. The primary variables affecting wave runup on sloping structures
are a , 6 , A , H , d , L , and the porosity (P) of the armor layer
and underlayers, i.e.,

Stability Scale Effects
12. If the absolute sizes of experimental breakwater materials and wave
dimensions become too small, flow around the armor units enters the laminar
regime; and the induced drag forces become a direct function of the Reynolds
number. Under these circumstances, prototype phenomena are not properly simu-
lated and stability scale effects are induced. Hudson (1975) presents a

detailed discussion of the design requirements necessary to ensure the preclu-
sion of stability scale effects in small-scale breakwater tests and concludes
that scale effects will be negligible if the Reynolds stability number,1/2 1/2 4

selected such that scale effects were insignificant (i.e., RN was greater4Nthan 3 x 10)

PART III: TESTS
Selection of Test Conditions
13. A review of past site-specific stability projects and hydrographic
data showed that typical prototype sea-bottom slopes could range from almost
flat to as steep as IV on 1OH. Realizing that wave deformation and severity
of breaking action increases as bottom slope increases and since time re-
straints would allow testing of only one foreslope, it was decided to use a
IV-on-IOH slope, thus ensuring severe depth-limited breaking wave action
(plunging breakers). This type of breaking wave normally causes the most dam-
age to rubble-mound structures.
14. By nondimensionalizing design conditions from site-specific proj-
ects, it was found that a d/L range of 0.04 to 0.14 should include most pro-
totype conditions encountered in breaking-wave stability designs. A review of
capabilities of the available flume and wave generator showed that this range
of d/L values could be achieved for a reasonable range of testing depths.
15. In planning a stability investigation, it is not possible to pre-
select exact values of H/L and Hid since the design-wave heights are un-
known at the outset of the study. However, the widest possible range of these
parameters can be ensured by using various armor weights that range from just
above the scale-effect regime at the lower limit up to the maximum weights
that the test facility is capable of displacing. For the present investiga-
tion, armor weights ranged from 0.23 to 0.71 lb.*
16. The wave flume was calibrated for depths from 0.40 to 0.95 ft in
0.05-ft increments at d/L values of 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, 0.10, 0.12, and 0.14.
This range of depths and consequently breaking wave heights proved to be com-
patible with the selected armor weights and sea-side breakwater slopes.
17. All stability and wave runup tests were conducted on sections of
the type shown in Plate 1 and Photos 1-16. Sea-side slopes of IV on 1.5H, IV
on 21, and IV on 31 were investigated while the beach-side slope was held con-
stant at IV on 1.5H. Structure heights varied from 1.0 to 1.6 ft. The height .-

necessary to prevent wave overtopping was determined by the combination of
slope, armor type and weight, and water depth being investigated.
Test Procedures
Method of constructing "
test sections
18. All experimental breakwater sections were constructed to reproduce
" as closely as possible results of the usual methods of constructing full-scale
breakwaters. The core material was dampened as it was dumped by bucket or jshovel into the flume and was compacted with hand trowels to simulate natural J_
consolidation resulting from wave action during construction of the prototype
structure. Once the core material was in place, it was sprayed with a low-
velocity water hose to ensure adequate compaction of the material. The under-
layer stone was then added by shovel and smoothed to grade by hand or with
trowels. No excessive pressure or compaction was applied during placement of
the underlayer stone. Armor units used in the cover layers were placed in a
random manner corresponding to work performed by a general coastal contractor,
i.e., they were individually placed but were laid down without special orien-
tation or fitting. After each test the armor units were removed from the
breakwater, all of the underlayer stones were replaced to the grade of the
original test section, and the armor was replaced.
Selection of criticallybreaking waves
* ...r~19. For a given wave period and water depth, the most detrimental break-
ing wave (i.e., the most damaging wave) was determined by increasing the
stroke adjustment on the wave generator in small increments and observing
which wave produced the most severe breaking wave condition on the experimen-
tal structures. Wave heights of lower amplitude did not form the critical
breaking wave and wave heights of larger amplitude would break seaward of the
test structures and dissipate their energy so that they were less damaging
than the critically tuned wave.
20. A typical stability test consisted of subjecting the test section
to attack by waves of a given height and period until it was certain no damage ...
was going to occur or if damage was occurring, until all damage had abated or
the amount of damage exceeded an acceptable level. Test sections were
12
% %
-".....'.".: . -," .. - - -"," "-:. €'' ". . ' ' "-" ' "-'"-'-" :- ' ""'-."Y -- -- - ' " ' , - -" :
subjected to wave attack in approximately 30-sec intervals between which the
wave generator was stopped and the waves were allowed to decay to zero height.
This procedure was necessary to prevent the structures from being subjected to
an undefined wave system created by reflections from the experimental break-
water and wave generator. Newly built test sections were subjected to a short
duration (five or six 30-sec intervals) of shakedown using a wave equal in
" height to about one-half of the estimated no-damage wave. This procedure pro-
vided a means of allowing consolidation and armor unit seating that would nor-
mally occur during prototype construction.
Method of determining damage
21. In order to evaluate and compare breakwater stability test results,
it is necessary to quantify the changes that have taken place in a given
structure during attack by waves of specified characteristics. The U. S. Army
Engineer Waterways Experiment Station (WES) developed a method of measuring
the percent damage incurred by a test section during the early 1950's. This
method has proven satisfactory and was used as a means for analyzing and com-
paring the stability tests delineated herein.
22. The WES damage-measurement technique requires that the cross-
sectional area occupied by armor units be determined for each stability test
section. Armor unit area is computed from elevations (soundings) taken at
closely spaced grid-point locations over the seaward face of the structure
before the armor is placed on the underlayer, after the armor has been placed
but before the section has been subjected to wave attack, and finally after
wave attack. Elevations are obtained with a sounding rod equipped with a cir- IT
cular spirit level for plumbing, a scale graduated in thousandths of a foot,
and a ball-and-socket foot for adjustment to the irregular surface of the
breakwater slope. The diameter (Diam) in inches of the circular foot of the
sounding rod was related to the size of the material being sounded by the
following equation:
Diam C (23)
where C = 6.8 and 13.7 for stone and dolosse, respectively. A series of
sounding tests in which both the weight of the armor and the diameter of the
sounding foot were varied indicated that the above relation would give a

measured thickness which visually appeared to represent an acceptable two-
layer thickness.
23. Sounding data for each test section were obtained as follows:
after the underlayer was in place, soundings were taken on the sea-side slope
of the structure along rows beginning at and parallel to the longitudinal
center line of the structure and extending in 0.25-ft horizontal increments
until the interface between the structure's toe and the flume bottom was
reached. On each parallel row, 13 sounding points, spaced at 0.25-ft incre-
ments, were measured. This distance represented the middle 3 ft of a 5-ft-
wide test section; the 1 ft of structure next to each wall was not considered
because of the possibility of discontinuity effects between the armor units
and the flume walls. Soundings were taken at the same points once the armor
was in place and again after the structure had been subjected to wave attack.
24. Sounding data from each stability test were reduced in the follow-
ing manner. The individual sounding points obtained on each parallel row
were averaged to yield an average elevation at the bottom of the armor layer ,
before the armor was placed and then at the top of the armor layer before and
after testing. From these values, the cross-sectional armor area before test-
ing and the area from which armor uniLs were displaced (either downslope or
off the section) were calculated. Damage was then determined from the follow-
ing relation:
Percent damage = (100) (24)
where
A : area before testing, ft21 2
A = area from which armor units have been displaced, ft2 A~
The percentage given by the WES sounding technique is, therefore, a measure-
ment of an end area which converts to an average volume of armor material
that has been moved from its original location (either downslope or
off-structure).
Measurement of wave runup
25. Values of wave runup were obtained with a point gage calibrated inincrements of 0.001 ft and mounted on an aluminum framework that could be
% moved along and across the seaward breakwater slope. Due to slight height
7variations from wave to wave within a given wave train and the highly porous
14
-.. S'"
texture of the breakwater slope, five measurements of R were made for eachU
test wave condition. Photos 17-22 show breaking and runup for selected waveconditions. Runup values were taken as the upper edge of the solid water,
* -. not the foam or splash line.
Test Equipment- and Materials
. Equipment used26. All wave-action tests were conducted in a 5-ft-wide, 4-ft-deep, and
119-ft-long concrete wave flume with test sections installed about 90 ft from
a vertical displacement wave generator. The first 10 ft of flume bottom,
immediately seaward of the test sections, was molded on a IV-on-10H slope
s. while the remaining 80 ft was flat. The generator is capable of producing
sinusoidal waves of various periods and heights. Test waves of the required
characteristics were generated by varying the frequency and amplitude of the
* -. plunger motion. Changes in water-surface elevation as a function of time
(wave heights) were measured by electrical wave-height gages in the vicinity
of where the toe of the test sections was to be placed and recorded on chart
paper by an electrically operated oscillograph. The electrical output of the
wave gages was directly proportional to their submergence depth.
Materials used

PART TV: TEST RESULTS
Stability Tests
28. Breaking wave stability test results for stone and dolos armor are
summarized in Tables I and 2, respectively. Presented therein are experi-
mentally determined design wave heights and corresponding stability numbers as
functions of relative depth, wave steepness, relative wave height, Ursell
Number (N ), and breakwater slope. All stability test results presented inU
Tables I and 2 were verified by at least one repeat test. Sea-side breakwater
slopes of IV on 1.5H, IV on 2H, IV on 3H were used for both armor types. The
following ranges of armor weights, water depths, wave periods and heights,
relative depths, wave steepness, Ursell Numbers, and relative wave heights
were investigated.

The number of armor units per given surface area, A , was N = 1.26 V-2 / 3
with n = 2 , ka = 1.00 , and P = 37 percent for stone armor, and
N = 0.83 V with n = 2 , kA = 0.94 , and P = 56 percent for dolos
armor. The variable, V , is defined as the volume of an individual armor
unit. It should be noted that k. = 1.00 obtained from numerous stone armor
tests is less than the present SPM (CERC 1977) value of 1.15. Photos 23-63
show the after-testing stability condition of the structures.
29. As previously discussed, it was hoped that stability test results
could be analyzed by the following functional relation for the stability num-
ber, N . where

N = f(H/d, H/L, cot a, A) (27)s
30. Plots of N versus H/d and H/L are presented in Plates 2 andS
3, respectively. Effects of H/d and H/L are combined in the Ursell Number2 3
* - (L H/d ) and results are given in Plate 4. These data show a weak functional
2 3dependence of N on H/d , H/L , and L H/d with the dependence being5
more pronounced for dolos armor. For both armor types, it generally appears2 23that minimum stability occurs for the larger values of H/d and L H/d and
for the intermediate range of H/L (0.07 < H/L < 0.085) . Results of pre-
vious tests conducted on quarrystone by Hudson (1958) and Carver (1980) for
nonbreaking waves, H/d < 0.32 and 0.03 < H/L < 0.08 , do not show these a..
trends. Also the trends are absent from earlier nonbreaking wave tests on
dolosse (Carver and Davidson 1977). The tests of Carver and Davidson were
conducted with H/d < 0.37 and 0.031 < H/L < 0.083
31. Plate 5 presents a log-log plot of N versus cot a Average and
lower limit linear fits of the Hudson type, i.e., IV-on-3H slope linear fits, .Oe
are also shown. Even though there is some data spread for each distinct value2 3of cot a (due to variations of H/d , H/L , and L H/d ), the linear fits
generally give a reasonable approximation of N as a function of cot as
especially for stone armor. The lower limit lines correspond to stability
coefficient (KD) values of 2.0 and 15.0 for stone and dolosse, respectively.

Wave Runup Tests
32. Runup, average runup, and the standard deviation are shown in
Tables 3 and 4 for all test conditions. Considering the small random varia-
tions inherent in test waves within a given wave train and small local varia-
. tions in the texture and porosity of the breakwater slope, test results appear
to be quite consistent.
33. As described in paragraph 11, it was hoped that runup test results
could be correlated by the following functional relation for relative runup
(Ru/H)u
Ru/H = fIA, H/L, H/d, ci, P, (22 bis)u o
For runup tests described herein P was constant for a given type of armor
and P/6 was invariant for all tests; therefore Equation 22 reduces to
R /H = f(A, H/L, H/d, a) (28)u
Calculated values of relative runup along with corresponding values of H/L
H/d , and cot a are presented in Tables 5 and 6 using the average runup from
Tables 3 and 4. Plates 6-11 present R /H as a function of H/L for con-U
stant values of cot a and Plates 12-17 present R /H as a function of H/du
for constant values of cot a . These data show relative runup to be a func-
tion of breakwater slope, wave steepness, relative wave height, and armor
type. It is very interesting to note that maximum values of R u/H are gener-
ally observed in the same H/L and H/d ranges that minimum stability was
obtained, i.e., Ns is a minimum and R u/H is a maximum when H/d > 0.90
and 0.06 < H/L < 0.085 . Consistent with nonbreaking wave data (Hudson 1958,
Jackson 1968, Carver and Davidson 1977. Carver 1980) flattening the slope from
IV on 1.5H to IV on 3H generally reduced runup. The general tendency for
runup to decrease at the milder slopes seems reasonable since as the slope
becomes flatter the wave has a longer travel distance to reach a given eleva-
tion and, therefore, a greater opportunity to dissipate energy.
4 4 34. Hudson (1958) found that for nonbreaking wave attack on stone
armor, plots of R u/H versus H/L gave concave curves; i.e., for small
values of H/L , R /H is relatively large and as H/L increases Ru/H'..'"u ..U
18t'.€.. .'.
'CO"
increases to a maximum value and then decreases as H/L continues to in-
crease. Data presented in Plates 6-8 show a trend very similar to that ob-
served by Hudson and the dolos trends evident in Plates 9-11 are similar to
those observed by Carver and Davidson (1977). Recent runup tests on stone
armor by Carver (1980) show a similar dependency between R /H and H/L tou..-that observed in the data presented herein. Maximum observed values of Ru/H
reported herein are generally 10 to 20 percent less than those obtained by
Hudson (1958), Carver and Davidson (1977), and Carver (1980) in nonbreaking
wave tests. This trend seems consistent since (for breaking waves) energy is
dissipated in the turbulence of breaking; therefore less energy is available
to produce runup. It should be noted that for very steep structure slopes,
such as those found in bulkheads and seawalls, breaking wave runup may be
greater than nonbreaking wave runup. This occurs when plunging breakers im-
pact directly on a near-vertical wall and the force of breaking causes a
shooting type of runup on the wall. The dependency of R /H on H/d , evi-u
dent in the present investigation, was not observed in the earlier nonbreaking
wave tests for the following reasons: (a) all nonbreaking wave tests were
conducted in an H/d range of 0.1 to 0.3; therefore H/d was sufficiently
low to preclude a significant effect on wave form, and (b) the range of H/d
was too limited (0.1 < H/d < 0.3) for a subtle trend (even if one were pres-
ent) to be detected.

PART V: CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
35. Based on the tests and results described herein, in which stone and
dolos armor are used on breakwater trunks and subjected to breaking waves with
a direction of approach of 90 deg, it is concluded that:
a. Armor stability is influenced by wave steepness (H/L), Ursell
Number (L H/d ), relative wave height (H/d), and breakwater%%% slope.
Sb. Effects of H/d L H/d and H/L are more pronounced for'< "- dolos armor.
,- c. In general, minimum stability for each armor type occurred forthe larger values of H/d (H/d > 0.90) , intermediate values of
2 3H/L (0.06 < H/L < 0.085) , and larger values of L H/d
d. Linear Hudson-type data fits generally give a reasonable ap-proximation of N as a function of cot U ; however, the
influences of H/d , H/L , and L 2H/d 3 are strong enough tomerit their consideration in final selection of armor unit .O
7-. weight.
e. Relative wave runup (R /H) is a function of wave steepness(H/L), relative wave height (H/d), type of armor, and break-water slope.
f. Maximum values of R /H were generally observed in the same -UH/L and H/d ranges that minimum stability was obtained. K-.
g. Lower limit K values (i.e., values that will yield a stableDdesign for any combination of wave height, wave period, and
" water depth investigated herein) obtained in this study are2.0 and 15.0 for stone and dolosse, respectively.
36. Based on the above conclusions, it is recommended that armor sta-
bility for breaking waves be presented as a function of wave height, wave
period, and water depth (e.g., Ursell Number). If wave conditions vary sig-
nificantly or their precise combinations cannot be accurately defined, then
the lower limit KD coefficients given in item g above should be used. It
should be noted that the K values of 2.0 and 15.0 (lower limits of the_r -.-
stone and dolos data presented herein) are significantly different from those
presented in the SPM (CERC 1977) and EM 1110-2-2904 (USAOCE 1963).
- 37. It is presumed that conclusions reached as a result of these tests
can be extended to wave spectra, most probably using the period and energy
density associated with the spectral peak (especially for relatively narrow
spectra). Future testing programs are planned to address the more complex
questions of bimodal and directional spectra.
