Corporate name TU Delft Date 2015-05-06 Abstract Potential breakage of armour stone could be a problem when it is exposed to many rough handling events after it is purchased and before it is permanently placed in the breakwater. This could be a significant problem when the rock is intended for a dynamically stable structure, for example berm breakwaters. Especially the grading of the rock material could be influenced by a negative way due to breaking and fragmentation of the rock. In this research the process of the rock from the quarry until the final positioning at the breakwater has been tried to simulate as much as possible. During this process tests are executed and the losses will be determined. Eventually it should a more clear view of the breakage of armour stone during the construction stage.
