Existing structures at Monmouth Beach have a range of stone sizes (3.5 to 

 10.3 tons) and are generally classified as being in either fair or poor condition. 

 Because of their condition and assuming an acceptable damage of 1 to 20 per- 

 cent, an armor unit weighing 12 tons (range of 10 to 14 tons) was selected. The 

 primary underlayer stone should be 1/10 of the armor layer weight ( 1 .2-ton range 

 of 1 .0 to 1 .4 tons) and the bedding layer 1/200 to 1/400 of the armor layer weight 

 (6 to 120 1b). 



Plan, profile, and cross-section templates (Figures 40-42. respectively) were 

 prepared from these stone sizes and recommended layer thicknesses. Volume 

 and weight estimates were then made for the required stone.
