ABSTRACT
Within the scope of the research on the stability of open slope revetments, much knowledge has been developed about the stability of placed (pitched) stone revetments under wave load and stability of rock under wave and current load. This development of knowledge has lead to a design methodology that has been laid down in writing in the “Design Manual for Pitched Slope Protection” ( cur/rws, 1995a), and the “Manual on the Use of Rock in Hydraulic Engineering” ( cur/rws, 1995b).
