Summary |
The lab research was conducted to elaborate recommendations on urgent measures to ensure stabilization of the beach. The lab investigations have shown, that the recommended underwater suspended load catching trapezoid prism-modal profile is effective and prevents the further movement of the sediment masses down the slope. The specified structure also contributes to the formation and stabilization of the littoral cell and coastal line. According to the preliminarily laboratory studies, the recommended structural decision, including, as well, the beach protection wall system, can restore and ensure the load balance equilibrium of the Cape Pitsunda.
