Procedures developed and conditions existing during 10 experiments on 



Laboratory Effects in Beach Studies (LEBS) are contained in this volume as 



a convenient reference to the analyses of LEBS data reported in separate 



volumes. This report also serves as a procedural manual for a common type 



of coastal engineering experiment, and it describes the wave generators used 



to produce data published in previous reports by the Coastal Engineering 



Research Center (CERC) . Special attention is given to the problem of running
