Engineering Design Considerations for Nearshore Berms

Abstract

Previous investigations of nearshore berms constructed with dredged material have focused on specific pilot projects with only limited effort to provide an experience base evaluation for more generally applicable design recommendations. This Technical Note draws on several completed projects and offers a comprehensive planning level document for nearshore berm design and construction considerations.
