Erosion and inundation, resulting from wave impacts, are challenges synonymous with the near sea location. These challenges have grown in intensity and event due to the well-known phenomenon of Global Warming. Therefore, the need for stronger and more stable structures has increased. The intention of this study is to develop a new artificial armour unit used for armouring offshore rubble mound breakwaters.

Erosion and inundation, resulting from wave impacts, are challenges synonymous with the near sea location.

The intention of this study is to develop a new artificial armour unit used for armouring offshore rubble mound breakwaters. The intention of this study is to develop a new artificial armour unit used for armouring offshore rubble mound breakwaters. A design of the intended armour unit has been given in this study. A number of calculations for determining the layer coefficients were conducted, hence, obtaining the layer s porosity and packing density. A number of two dimensional tests have been conducted on this newly designed unit including hydraulic stability, overtopping and run-up. All these characteristics and test results have been compared to other well known armour units.
