Model tests to determine the quantity of littoral drift for various 

 crest elevations of an offshore breakwater at the Broward County Beach 

 were conducted. Wave heights on the lee side of the breakwater were 

 measured by theoretical and empirical methods, and the capacity of sand 

 transport for each breakwater height was determined. Four specific cases 

 were tested in detail: sand transport capacity without a breakwater 

 (i.e., the existing conditions) and sand transport with breakwater crest 

 elevations of +2, -2, and ±0 feet above MSL. The range of wave heights 

 and water levels in the model tests covered the corresponding parameters 

 in nature.

Model studies of a seawall structure and of low and submerged break- 

 waters were carried out in the Hydraulics Laboratory of the Technion for 

 Hasmareng, Joint Consulting Engineers, for Manshiah Shore Development, 

 Tel-Aviv, on behalf of Achuzot Hachof Company Ltd. The object of the 

 studies was to determine experimentally the suitability of the various 

 shore protection structures proposed by Hasmareng engineers, as a part of 

 the feasibility study carried out by them for Achuzot Hachof Company, and 

 to recommend improvements .
