Hard engineering can also be used to stop the sea or rivers from flooding areas. Examples of hard engineering strategies are: ### Sea walls ![Sea walls](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-05/8c14fe32-2503-4aef-bd15-823c6ffd82a6/shutterstock_232808302%20(2).jpg) - Sea walls are made out of materials that block waves. - Making them out of hard rock or materials like concrete means that they are more resilient and last longer. - Their shape can be designed to reflect a wave's power back out to sea, instead of being absorbed by the sea wall head-on. - Sea walls can protect promenades from flooding and can reduce coastal erosion. - Sea walls cost a lot of money and have to be built all along a town's coastline to protect the town. ### Rock armour (riprap) ![Rock armour (riprap)](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-04/7081ea1c-1fbb-4f98-875d-70d494913226/shutterstock_797074513.jpg) - Rock armour is simply a pile of rocks or boulders. - The rocks absorb some of the pressure and energy transferred by waves. - Enormous waves can remove the boulders, but they are a very cheap form of coastal protection. ### Gabions ![Gabions](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-04/744cd8b8-1ff0-4102-97be-b7dbbd3e279d/shutterstock_752396056.jpg) - Gabions are wire cages full of boulders and rocks. that are filled with rocks. - The gabions absorb some of the pressure and energy transferred by waves. - This leads to less erosion, but the wire in the cages is corroded over time. ### Groynes ![Groynes](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-04/1ead36f1-b7fc-422a-8c51-1664203caeff/shutterstock_786792388.jpg) - Groynes are fences that stick out at 90o to the coast. - Groynes stop the process of longshore drift by trapping material against the fence. - Groynes create wide beaches, which are better for protecting the coastline from erosion and floods. - Building fences is also cheap. ## Test yourself on Coastal Management - Hard Engineering - What are the disadvantages of sea walls?
