ANALYSIS AND PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF A TANGENT BORED PILE WALL AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO CONVENTIONAL BREAKWATERS. (2023). Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 37, structures.96. https://doi.org/10.9753/icce.v37.structures.96
Resumen
Based on existing construction practices, and the difficulty of sourcing rock armor materials in the Philippines, an alternative to conventional rubble mound breakwaters was considered for a beach resort development in Cebu, Philippines. A tangent bored pile wall, consisting of circular piles placed diametrically along a specified alignment, was analyzed and designed as a breakwater. It relies on pile embedment depth and soil friction for stability, unlike conventional breakwaters which rely on the weight of the armor rocks and the interlocking of individual armor units.Referencias
