The paper presents an overview of the project background, the research objective, the research methodology and the research results of the project. The outcome of the project is a large amount of formulae describing important failure modes, plus development of related partial coefficients which make it possible to design according to preselected reliability levels. Due to limited space only the major activities are described.","breakwater; failure mode","en","report","Aalborg University","","","","","","","","","","","","Rubble mound breakwaters failure modes",""
