Figure Sketch of breakwater profile with definition of eroded area and depth of cover Damage Measurement Methods Eroded volume method The Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station's (WES') historical method for characterizing damage utilized profiles to determine the percentage volume of stones eroded relative to the total volume of stones in the active armor layer. Hudson (1959) used this volume method. But the method apparently is 34
