Executive Summary | A seawall made of a vertical slit caisson is tested for reflection coefficients, overtopping characteristics, and aeration capacity with irregular or regular waves. The model scale of 1/25 is used for the experiments of overtopping characteristics, and that of 1/15 is used for the experiments of the other two. From the results of these tests, the optimum opening ratio and the configuration of the front slit can be chosen. The required crest height of its parapet is also made clear. |
