Abstract
A composite type breakwater with back-filling was applied to improve the stability acting on wave forces. In this paper, 2-dimensional wave tank tests were carried out to reveal the effects of the interaction wave forces and back-filling reaction forces. The back-filling reaction forces acting on the breakwater were measured by 2-dimensional load cell. The composite type breakwater with back-filling is stability more than without back-filling structures. And it is confirmed that the existing design method is safety side evaluation more than the experimental results.
