This report discusses the application of detached single and segmented breakwaters for shore protection and beach stabilization. Four single detached breakwaters and six segmented breakwater systems in the United States are reviewed. Based on this review, the performance of breakwaters in other countries, and general knowledge of coastal processes, the implementation and design of breakwaters are discussed. General guidance is presented for the design of detached breakwaters and several design examples are presented. (Author).

Global warming, melting polar caps, rising sea levels and intensifying wave-current action, factors responsible for the alarming phenomena of coastal erosion on the one hand and adverse environmental impacts and the high cost of 'hard' protection schemes, on the other, have created interest in the detailed examination of the potential and range of applicability of the emerging and promising category of 'soft' shore protection methods. 'Soft' methods such as beach nourishment, submerged breakwaters, artificial reefs, gravity drain systems, floating breakwaters, plantations of hydrophylous shrubs or even dry branches, applied mostly during the past 20 years, are recognised as possessing technical, environmental and financial advantageous properties deserving more attention and further developmental experimentation than has occured hitherto. On the other hand, 'hard' shore protection methods such as seawalls, groins and detached breakwaters, artefacts borrowed from port design and construction technology, no matter how well designed and well implemented they may be, can hardly avoid intensification of the consequential erosive, often devastating, effects on the down-drift shores. Moreover, they often do not constitute environmentally and financially attractive solutions for long stretches of eroding shoreline. Engineers and scientists practising design and implementation of shore defence schemes have been aware for many years of the public demand for improved shore protection technologies. They are encouraging efforts that promise enrichment of those environmentally sound and financially attractive methods that can be safely applied.

Excerpt from An Annotated Bibliography on Detached Breakwaters and Artificial Headlands In recent years there has been a growing awareness of the potential use of detached breakwaters for shore stabilization. However, lack of design experience with these structures has hindered their widespread application in beach erosion projects. Engineers are often uncertain about how to approach the design problem because of the many unknowns involved. In addition, there are few existing structures that can be studied to provide prototype data. This annotated bibliography is presented to assist in the develop ment of reliable design procedures for detached breakwaters. The refer onces deal with topics which can be usefully applied to the design problem although many are not limited solely to the subject of detached break waters. For instance, the wave dissipation characteristics of submerged breakwaters are discussed in several papers. An understanding of these characteristics would be necessary for the design of some detached break waters. Papers on wave diffraction, reflection, transmission, and over topping are also included. The bibliography is not comprehensive in these areas but an attempt has been made to identify some significant works with potential applications. Several papers describe the use of detached breakwaters as sand traps for navigation projects. Although this use does not fall within the realm of shore protection, these structures do affect the coastal pro cesses in the same way as shore protection breakwaters.
