This paper presents results of 3 years of field observations 

 on low cost beach protection structures in use on the Great Lakes . 

 Structures were studied in regard to their effectiveness as beach 

 building and protective devices and with respect to their dura- 

 bility in resisting ice and wave forces. The term "low cost" 

 refers to structures which cost between $10 and $30 per foot of 

 frontage at 1952 prices.

"Principles of Shore Protection for the 5310GR0002

The author states that a requirement of impermeability is 

 absolute for groins built on shores of the Great Lakes. Because 

 of the scarcity of natural shore sediment, permeable groins would 

 be inadequate. The paper presents discussion of the coastal 

 engineer's role and duty in shore protection.
