The purpose of the Manual is to facilitate the implementation of the recommendations in the ROM 1.1-18 Articles. This document presents approaches, methods and tools compatible with the indications of the ROM 1.1-18 Articles, and should be periodically updated so that it is in consonance with the current level of knowledge and its limitations. This manual is composed of the following three chapters:
- C1. Description of the construction site. Explains the purpose of the harbor area and the breakwater. In addition, it establishes the geometric foundations for the description of the site and of the construction as a whole. It also provides information regarding the elements that must be considered in the design of a maritime structure i.e. (topography and bathymetry; seabed and seismic activity; maritime and atmospheric climate agents; shoreline morphodynamics and water quality; quarries and riprap).
- C2. Breakwater types and failure and stoppage modes. Provides the infor-mation needed to design a certain breakwater type, based on the dominant agents in the subset. It describes the regimes and domains of the hydrodynamic performance of the breakwater and its subsets. A set of recommendations is also provided for the design and pre-design of the layout, subsets and sections. Moreover, a set of formulas is also given for the design and pre-design of the layout, subsets, and sections. Also specified are the formulas that can be used to calculate the geometry of a breakwater section and its hydrodynamic performance in response to climate agents. Finally work methodologies are proposed for the verification of the technical requirements of a breakwater and its subsets in relation to failure and stoppage modes
- C3. Evaluation of breakwater construction and repair costs. Presents a set of methods and tools that can be used for the organization of the construction process, definition of construction and repair strategies, and statistical characterization of the costs of the different project phases and their temporal distribution.
