In the 1970s, the mangrove forests were cut down along the coast of the Gulf of Thailand, causing a significant coastline recession. The breakwaters installed as countermeasures against the coastline recession are built on soft ground and, therefore, suffer from severe settlement. In 2017, the lattice-frame-reinforced sheet (LFR), which has a proven track record as a method for countering soft ground, was installed along the coast of Thailand to construct a breakwater. After seven years of monitoring, it was confirmed that the structures were functioning as a countermeasure against settlement, demonstrating the feasibility of constructing sustainable revetment methods.

摘要

In the 1970s, the mangrove forests were cut down along the coast of the Gulf of Thailand, causing a significant coastline recession. The breakwaters installed as countermeasures against the coastline recession are built on soft ground and, therefore, suffer from severe settlement. In 2017, the lattice-frame-reinforced sheet (LFR), which has a proven track record as a method for countering soft ground, was installed along the coast of Thailand to construct a breakwater. After seven years of monitoring, it was confirmed that the structures were functioning as a countermeasure against settlement, demonstrating the feasibility of constructing sustainable revetment methods.
