Abstract
A proposal is made for new wave pressure formulae, which can be applied for the whole ranges of wave action from nonbreaking to postbreaking waves with smooth transition between them. The design wave height is specified as the maximum wave height possible at the site of breakwater. The new formulae as well as the existing formulae of Hiroi, Sainflou, and Minikin have been calibrated with the cases of 21 slidings and 13 nonslidings of the upright sections of prototype breakwaters. The calibration establishes that the new formulae are the most accurate ones.
