Scour protection is a type of engineering that is used to prevent the erosion of soil underwater. This is usually caused when fast-moving water removes sediment from around the foundations of a structure, causing damage that compromises the structural integrity of the construction's materials.

The type of scour protection that is used will depend on a number of factors, including the size and type of structure, the depth of water, and the velocity of the water flow.

Scour protection is an important part of the design and construction of breakwaters. By preventing the formation of scour holes, scour protection can help to ensure the long-term stability of the structure.

Here is some additional information about scour protection for breakwaters:

• Scour protection is typically required for breakwaters that are located in areas with high currents or waves.

• The type of scour protection that is used will depend on the size and type of breakwater, as well as the depth and velocity of the water.

• Scour protection can be a costly addition to a breakwater project, but it can save money in the long run by preventing the need for repairs or replacement.
