    PIANC-World Congress Panama City, Panama 2018 GEOTEXTILE TUBE AND GABION ARMOURED SEAWALL FOR COASTAL PROTECTION AN ALTERNATIVE by S Sherlin Prem Nishold1, Ranganathan Sundaravadivelu 2*, Nilanjan Saha3 ABSTRACT The present study deals with a site-specific innovative solution executed in the northeast coastline of Odisha in India. The retarded embankment which had been maintained yearly by traditional means of ‘bullah piling’ and sandbags, proved ineffective and got washed away for a stretch of 350 meters in 2011. About the site condition, it is required to design an efficient coastal protection system prevailing to a low soil bearing capacity and continuously exposed to tides and waves. The erosion of existing embankment at Pentha ( Odisha ) has necessitated the construction of a retarded embankment. Conventional hard engineered materials for coastal protection are more expensive since they are not readily available near to the site. Moreover, they have not been found suitable for prevailing in in-situ marine environment and soil condition. Geosynthetics are innovative solutions for coastal erosion and protection are cheap, quickly installable when compared to other materials and methods. Therefore, a geotextile tube seawall was designed and built for a length of 505 m as soft coastal protection structure. A scaled model (1:10) study of geotextile tube configurations with and without gabion box structure is examined for the better understanding of hydrodynamic characteristics for such configurations. The scaled model in the mentioned configuration was constructed using woven geotextile fabric as geo tubes. The gabion box was made up of eco-friendly polypropylene tar-coated rope and consists of small rubble stones which increase the porosity when compared to the conventional monolithic rubble mound.

  • Chapter 213 the Impacts of Shoreline Protection
    CHAPTER 213 THE IMPACTS OF SHORELINE PROTECTION STRUCTURES ON BEACHES ALONG MONTEREY BAY, CALB^ORNIA GaryB. Griggs* James F. Tait* Katherine Scott* Abstract As a result of severe coastal storm damage in recent years along the California coast and the continuation of development and redevelopment in hazard prone oceanfront areas, large numbers of coastal protection structures have been built. This same trend has been observed on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts as well. At present, fully 12%, or 130 miles of California's 1100 miles of shoreline have been armored. As the number of structures and their coastal frontage has increased, concern along the California coast and elsewhere has arisen in regard to the impacts of these protective structures on the adjacent beaches. Three Atlantic coast states (Maine, New Jersey, and North Carolina) have responded to this concern by establishing state-level policy which prohibits construction of any new "hard" protective structures. Although considerable laboratory scale research has been carried out on this problem, field work has been extremely limited. A study along the central California coast was initiated in order to resolve some of the most critical questions regarding the impacts of protection structures on beaches. Based on 4 years of precise, biweekly, shore- based surveys in the vicinity of different types of seawalls along the shoreline of northern Monterey Bay along the central California coast, some consistent beach changes have been documented. All of the changes observed to date have been seasonal and are best developed in the fall and winter months during the transition from summer swell to winter storm conditions.

Box 530,11000 Belgrade, Yugoslavia Preface Although the total amount of water on earth is generally assumed to have Remained virtually constant, the rapid growth of population, together with the extension of irrigated agriculture and industrial development, are stressing the quantity and quality aspects of the natural system. Because of the increasing problems, man has begun to realize that he can no longer follow a "use and discard" philosophy ~ either with water resources or any other natural resources. Asa result, the need for a consistent policy of rational management of water resources has become evident. Rational water management, however, should be founded upon a thorough understanding of water availability and movement. Thus, as a contribution to the solution of the worlds water problems, Unesco, in 1965, began the first world-wide programme of studies of the hydrological cycle - the International Hydrological Decade (IHD).

  • Geotechnical Aspects of Seawall Stability with Climate Change
    GEOTECHNICAL ASPECTS OF SEAWALL STABILITY WITH CLIMATE CHANGE Lex Nielsen WorleyParsons [email protected] Agustria Salim Pells Sullivan Meynink Doug Lord Coastal Environment Geoff Withycombe Sydney Coastal Councils Group Ian Armstrong Sydney Coastal Councils Group Introduction Existing seawalls and protection structures exist at many locations around the Australian coast where construction details are unknown and the capacity of the structures to withstand storms has not been verified. Seawall asset owners and managers (usually Local Councils) are faced with determining development applications in areas protected by such structures. Often, the responsibility, ownership and liability arising from these structures are not clear, with many structures constructed entirely or in part on Public Land. Frequently, there is conflict between the coastal managers and the community who have varying impressions of their effectiveness in providing protection and their impact on the public beach. This project has developed methods whereby the efficacy of existing seawalls may be determined. The project was undertaken by the Sydney Coastal Councils Group (SCCG) with funding provided by the Commonwealth Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency (DCCEE) through a Climate Adaptation Pathways (CAP) grant. The project was overseen by a National Reference Group comprising expertise from local government, state government, universities with coastal management expertise and industry specialists. Key elements of the project were as follows: Literature review of existing seawall types, remote sensing techniques, options for upgrading, certification requirements - Water Research Laboratory (WRL), University of NSW (UNSW). Geotechnical assessment of structure types and common failure modes - WorleyParsons. Economic aspects of the decision making process - Bond University under the direction of the Centre for Coastal Management (CCM) at Griffith University (GU).

  • Storms and Coastal Defences at Chiswell This Booklet Provides Information About
    storms and coastal defences at chiswell this booklet provides information about: • How Chesil Beach and the Fleet Lagoon formed and how it has What is this changed over the last 100 years • Why coastal defences were built at Chiswell and how they work • The causes and impacts of the worst storms in a generation booklet that occurred over the winter 2013 / 14 • What will happen in the future Chesil Beach has considerable scientific about? significance and has been widely studied. The sheer size of the beach and the varying size and shape of the beach material are just some of the reasons why this beach is of worldwide interest and importance. Chesil Beach is an 18 mile long shingle bank that stretches north-west from Portland to West Bay. It is mostly made up of chert and flint pebbles that vary in size along the beach with the larger, smoother pebbles towards the Portland end. The range of shapes and sizes is thought to be a result of the natural sorting process of the sea. The southern part of the beach towards Portland shelves steeply into the sea and continues below sea level, only levelling off at 18m depth. It is slightly shallower at the western end where it levels off at a depth of 11m. This is mirrored above sea level where typically the shingle ridge is 13m high at Portland and 4m high at West Bay. For 8 miles Chesil Beach is separated from the land by the Fleet lagoon - a shallow stretch of water up to 5m deep.

The Yunlin coast, a first-level protection area in mid-west Taiwan, was then used as an example to illustrate the proposed design criteria. The safety of the present coastal defenses and land use of the Yunlin coastal area was assessed, and coastal protection measures for hazard prevention were proposed based on the generated risk map. The results can be informative for future coastal management and the promotion of sustainable development of coastal zones. Keywords: coastal defense; risk maps; non-engineering measure; coastal vulnerability 1. Introduction Like most developing countries, Taiwan’s coast has been alternatively used for settlement, agriculture, trade, industry, and recreation without careful and thorough planning in the development stage since 70s.

  • Technology Fact Sheet Seawall and Revetment Technologyi
    Technology Fact Sheet Seawall and revetment technologyi 1) Introduction In every coastal area and beach in Indonesia, integrated coastal management will be applied. This is a process of coastal natural resource management and environmental services that integrate the activities of government, business and society covering horizontal and vertical planning, preserving land and marine ecosystems, application of science and management, so that this resource management will improve and be sustainable for the surrounding community welfare. Lack of understanding of coastal dynamics will lead the efforts to harness the economic potential even bring up new problems such as erosion and abrasion as well as accretion. Besides, the incidence of sea level rise and tropical storms will also lead to coastal erosion. Various efforts to solve the problems through the development of Seawall and revetment have been and some are being done by government, business and the society. Because the incidence of abrasion and erosion of beaches are scattered throughout Indonesia, the location that has a significant impact will be followed up in advance. Development of Seawall and revetment is one of the appropriate adapt technology in dealing with further damage of coastal and beaches. A) Feasibility of technology and operational necessities Seawall and revetment are structures that were built on coastline as a barrier of the mainland on one side and waters on the other. The function of this structure is to protect and keep the coastline from waves and to hold the soil behind the seawall. The seawall is expected to cease erosion process. On the north coast of Java, many cities are experiencing abrasion and erosion resulting from a decrease of land and sea-level rise.

  • Dune Nourishment Fact Sheet
    StormSmart Coasts StormSmart Properties Fact Sheet 1: Artificial Dunes and Dune Nourishment The coast is a very dynamic environment and coastal shorelines—especially beaches, dunes, and banks—change constantly in response to wind, waves, tides, and other factors such as seasonal variation, sea level rise, and human alterations to the shoreline system. Consequently, many coastal properties are at risk from storm damage, erosion, and flooding. Inappropriate shoreline stabilization methods can actually do more harm than good by exacerbating beach erosion, damaging neighboring properties, impacting marine habitats, and diminishing the capacity of beaches, dunes, and other natural landforms to protect inland areas from storm damage and flooding. StormSmart Properties—part of the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management’s (CZM) StormSmart Coasts program—provides coastal property owners with important information on a range of shoreline stabilization techniques that can effectively reduce erosion and storm damage while minimizing impacts to shoreline systems. This information is intended to help property owners work with consultants and other design professionals to select the best option for their circumstances. What Are Artificial Dunes and Dune Nourishment? A dune is a hill, mound, or ridge of sediment that No shoreline stabilization option permanently stops has been deposited by wind or waves landward of all erosion or storm damage. The level of protection a coastal beach. In Massachusetts, the sediments provided depends on the option chosen, project design, that form beaches and dunes range from sand to and site-specific conditions such as the exposure to gravel- and cobble-sized material. An artificial dune storms. All options require maintenance, and many is a shoreline protection option where a new mound also require steps to address adverse impacts to of compatible sediment (i.e., sediment of similar the shoreline system, called mitigation.
