The JBA Trust wave tank shows how different combinations of coastal defences and wave and tide conditions affect the potential for overtopping and flood risk.
Over-topping rates can be measured for the following defences and conditions:
- beach during a storm surge
- vertical and recurved sea walls
- stepped and sloped revetments
- rock armour
- submerged near-shore breakwater
