Abstract
In a coastal area where the water depth changes rapidly, waves developed in the offshore propagate to the coast, with a massive energy without any dissipation. Particular attention should be paid to the occurrence of damage in an island, where the land is open towards the ocean, in the event of abnormal wind wave, and design of structures in such region requires thorough examination. The southern and northern coasts of Hongdo Island located in the western coast of South Korea face the ocean side, and are directly affected when a typhoon or a high wave occurs. Therefore, structural damage due to wave generation frequently occurred in the coasts, and repair and reinforcement work were carried out several times.
