Abstract
The West Breakwater at the Port of Sines, Portugal, underwent rehabilitation work after suffering severe storm damage in 1978. The emergency repairs, rebuilding of the breakwater head, and extensive monitoring program adopted are discussed. The new round head uses three layers of high-density Antifer cubes. Concrete with a density of 3.1 ton/m super(3) was used to produce the heavier cubes.
