Abstract
On the banks of the River Cynon in Aberdare, South Wales, seven designs of flood revetment blocks were tested for resistance to penetration and displacement by R. japonica, an introduced alien now widespread on river banks in some areas. With the subsequent failure of all designs tested, the testing of a new block is described. Its success is attributed to a microporous structure and interlocking/overlapping edges.
