| Résumé | This report describes a two-dimensional physical model study conducted by the National Research Council of Canada's Ocean, Coastal and River Engineering Research Centre (NRC-OCRE), in close collaboration with Kerr Wood Leidal Associates (KWL), to support the design of an erosion-resistant clay dyke that is to be constructed for the Boundary Bay Living Dyke pilot project in Surrey, British Columbia.
Several dyke models were constructed and tested at full (1:1) scale in the NRC-OCRE’s Large Wave-Current Flume located in Ottawa, Ontario. The dyke models were constructed using clay and till sediments locally procured from Surrey that eroded naturally in response to wave forcing. The test facility was outfitted with a wave machine that was capable of generating a wide range of realistic sea states. The model was suitably equipped with instrumentation to measure wave conditions, near-bed orbital velocities, and changes in the shape of the dyke.
A total of 28 individual tests were conducted to assess the performance of the various dyke compositions and varying compaction rates for a range of prescribed wave conditions and water levels. These investigations generated a large quantity of valuable information concerning the proposed dyke design. This information will be used by KWL to optimize and support the detailed design of the Boundary Bay Living Dyke pilot project. |
