Corporate name TU Delft Project Berm Breakwaters Date 1989-01-01 Abstract A reef breakwater is a low-crested rubble-mound breakwater without the traditional multilayer cross section. This type of breakwater, in essence, is a homogeneous pile of stone with individual stone weights similar to those used in the armour and first underlayer of conventional breakwaters. Because of their high porosity, reef breakwaters are suprisingly stable to wave attack and, at the same time, can dissipate wa ve energy effectively.
