Many types of breakwater have been developed through the advance of rational design and construction method. Especially an inclined slit wall caisson which has already been employed in some harbors, has been developed to reduce wave pressure effectively by utilizing chamber which is acted the effect of vertical wave force. Therefore the size of an inclined slit wall caisson can dramatically been diminished by comparison with a normal caisson.
The design of the slit wall caisson is made according to the design procedures for existing vertical slit wall caisson. However the inclined slit and wall affect the maximum wave force acting on the slit and wall is affected by the inclined slit and wall, and it differs from the force on existing vertical slit wall caisson.
This paper describes the experimental characteristics of maximum wave force and wave pressure acting on the inclined slit wall caisson.
