Design of bank protection of inland navigation fairways : presented at the International conference on flexible armoured revetments incorporating geotextiles, London, England, 29-30 March 1984

The collapse mechanism of bottom and bank constructions of fairways under attack of ship induced water motion has been studied from model and prototype tests. Transport relations and design criteria for subsoil, filter layers, and protection layers consisting of rip rap or blocks are formulated and verified, as far as they are at present.
