This Part of BS 6349 consists of six sections providing guidance for the design and construction of breakwaters as f
29、ollows. Section 1: General; Section 2: Layout planning; Section 3: General design of breakwater structures; Section 4: Rubble mound structures; Section 5: Vertical face structures; Section 6: Composite structures. It has been assumed in the drafting of this British Standard that the execution of its
30、 provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people, for whose guidance it has been prepared. It provides information and guidance, not all of which may be directly verifiable. Depending upon the extent of information and knowledge gained in this field in the coming years, it
31、is possible that this guide could be updated as a code of practice. The seven Parts of BS 6349 are as follows. Part 1: General criteria; Part 2: Design of quay walls, jetties and dolphins; Part 3: Design of dry docks, locks, slipways and shipbuilding berths, shiplifts and dock and lock gates; Part 4
32、: Design of fendering and mooring systems; Part 5: Code of practice for dredging and land reclamation; Part 6: Design of inshore moorings and floating structures; Part 7: Guide to the design and construction of breakwaters. Parts 1 to 6 have been written as codes of practice and contain recommendati
33、ons on good, accepted practice as followed by competent practitioners. Part 7 has been written as a guide. A number of the figures and tables in this Part of BS 6349 have been provided by individual organizations who own the copyright. The details of the sources are given at the foot of each figure

General 1.1 Scope This Part of BS 6349 provides guidance on the design and construction of breakwaters. Breakwaters are structures which provide protection to harbours and structures such as
39、 sea intakes against wave action and this Part of BS 6349 gives guidance on the main types of breakwater. Floating breakwaters are not included. Coastal structures such as groynes, revetments and training walls are not covered, although certain aspects of design may be found to be relevant to them.
40、NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this British Standard are listed on the inside back cover. The numbers in square brackets used throughout the text relate to the bibliographic references given in Appendix A. 1.2 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of BS 6349, the definitions
41、in BS 6349-1 apply together with the following. 1.2.1 rubble mound breakwater a structure composed primarily of rocks dumped or placed upon the sea bed. An outer layer, or layers, of more massive rock or precast concrete units provides an armour layer to protect the less massive rock core from wave
42、attack. A concrete crest structure which contributes to the function of the breakwater may be constructed on the mound NOTE Examples of rubble mound breakwaters are shown in Figure 6. 1.2.2 vertical face breakwater a breakwater in which wave attack is resisted primarily by a vertically faced structu
43、re extending directly from sea bed level NOTE Examples of vertical face breakwaters are shown in Figure 18. 1.2.3 composite breakwater a submerged rubble mound foundation or breakwater surmounted by a vertically faced structure projecting above sea level NOTE Examples of composite breakwaters are sh
44、own in Figure 30.BS 6349-7:1991 2 BSI 04-1999 Section 2. Layout planning 2.1 General This section considers the planning of breakwater layout to achieve the harbour protection function. Guidance is given on navigational aspects, wave penetration, environmental effects and data collection. 2.2 Harbou
45、r layout 2.2.1 General Wave energy can enter a harbour by penetration through the entrance between the breakwaters, by overtopping and by transmission through permeable breakwater structures. The types of breakwater structures used and their detailed design therefore influence the wave climate withi
46、n the harbour, and for this reason breakwater layout cannot be entirely separated from design of the structures; an iterative process is often needed in determining the optimum solution. Port planning requirements for the number, size and locations of cargo handling facilities will determine the ove
47、rall dimensions of the harbour. These considerations are outside the scope of this Part of BS 6349. References are given in 2.1.1 of BS 6349-2:1988. Breakwaters can also be required to protect an approach channel from littoral drift or to stabilize or train the alignment of a tidal entrance. The sit
48、ing and layout of the breakwaters to provide the necessary degree of protection to the harbour are determined by the need for the following: a) sheltered conditions for ships at berth or anchorage; b) manoeuvring and turning areas for ships within the harbour; c) an adequate stopping distance for sh
49、ips entering the harbour entrance at a safe navigating speed. 2.2.2 Navigational aspects Criteria for depth and width of approach channels are given in clause 18 of BS 6349-1:1984, criteria for manoeuvring inside harbours are given in clause 19 of BS 6349-1:1984, and criteria for the acceptable wave conditions for moored boats and ships are given in clauses 30 and 31 of BS 6349-1:1984. Suitable conditions should also be provided to enable tugs and mooring vessels t
