20. ABSTRACT CConilrmm art i 



ram aide ft necessary and identity by block number) 



Published and unpublished results of tests of monochromatic wave runup 

 were reanalyzed for both smooth and rough structure surfaces. The rough- 

 surfaced structures included breakwaters and riprapped slopes, and both 

 quarrystone and concrete armor units. 



Wave runup theory is discussed briefly and an empirical equation is given 

 for runup on smooth slopes from waves which break on the structure slope.
