> aide If neceaeary and Identify by block number) 



This report combines the material previously presented in Sections 2.62 

 and 3.85 of the Shore Protection Manual. Computation of wave setup on 

 beaches as steep as 1 on 10 (m=0.01) can be easily determined by graphical 

 means when incident wave conditions are defined. Practical applications are 

 discussed and two example problems are provided.
