In Equation 73, the quantity 2Q a is the sand transport rate along a straight beach exposed to the incident breaking wave angle a . (This is the transport initially existing when the groin compartment is completely filled.) If Q in Equation 73 is normalized with this quantity, the bypassing sand discharge at the downdrift end groin is conveniently displayed in dimension- less form. Figure 34 shows such a curve. 54.
