ABSTRACT:
A block of this invention for constructing a breakwater is characterized by having a front wall provided with a horizontal hole, an intermediate wall, a rear wall and a pair of spaced apart longitudinal walls which are disposed perpendicular to the above three walls for integrally connecting the three walls.
Due to such construction, when the blocks are stacked up in rows to form a breakwater, the breakwater can have a first chamber which effects the dissipation of wave force and a second chamber which effects the firm integration of blocks along with the packing of a block uniting material therein.
