Zusammenfassung:A novel design for eliminating bank and cliff erosion on sandy beaches and having a very small width footprint on the beach is provided by an adjustable metal frame main structure with curved corrugated steel sheets coated with a special sandy colored polyurethane attached to the frame so as to curve upwardly to a generally vertical upper edge. A base sheet of the frame is held down against the sand by heavy rock so that the toe of the curved sheet is buried three feet below the sand surface. The design does not require any armor rock in front of the curved sheet.
