Comparison and Analysis of Chinese and European Standards Involving in Design of Rubble Mound Breakwater
With gradual increase of overseas projects,international standards are often required in the design.In addition to wharf structure,international standards are also taken into account in the design of breakwater due to its function of shielding main wharf structure.Rubber mound breakwater is commonly used,and characterized with the advantages of simple structure,construction in convenience,and materials obtained locally.European and Chinese standards are different in the design of breakwater,including structural requirements,selection of calculation parameters and specific calculation methods.Based on actual projects,the results by using European standard are compared with that under Chinese standard,which assists technical personnel in more intuitive understanding of European standard,and more accurate control of similar overseas projects.
