Figure B2. Four piston-type wave generators are shown with the facility drained.
Each wave board is 7.62 m long and is oriented at 10 deg to shore-
normal in this figure. The wave generators can be positioned within
the range of 0 through 20 deg relative to shore-normal
Figure B3. The instrumentation bridge is 21 m long and spans the entire width of
the beach. The offshore support rail is located at the far right in this
photograph. The bridge is designed to support wave gauges,
current meters, optical backscatter sensors, and an automated
beach profile indicator. The bridge also functions as an observation
platform
