Question: ( 1 0 % ) What weight concrete tribars are needed as armor units for a breakwater ( crosssection similar to Figure 7 . 4

(10%) What weight concrete tribars are needed as armor units for a breakwater (crosssection similar to Figure 7.4, Sorensen, 1997) if no damage is allowed and minor wave overtopping is assumed? The design water depth at the seaward toe of the breakwater is 6m and the sea floor in front of the breakwater has a 1:20 slope. A design wave with Hs=4.9m and Ts=8s in deep water ( assume Kr=1.0) is to be used.
