Coastal Division has requested to reassess the wave overtopping discharge for several cross sections in Zeebrugge dock area and for Vandammesluise zone.
Previous overtopping calculation were carried out and already concluded for both areas, respectively in the 12_152 and 12_099 project.
The new calculation will use the overtopping formulas by a deterministic or design approach. Final aim is to reassess the minimum wall elevation in order to satisfy the overtopping criteria.
