Calculate the stability of the caisson structure to be built in the project area where the specific gravity of the sea water is 10.20 kN/m³. The deep water significant wave height and significant wave period are Hs0-5.Ym and T-6.Xs., respectively. Bottom slope will be considered as 1/50. Friction factor between caisson concrete structure and rubble mound foundation is μ =0.5. Safety factor against sliding will be considered as 1.1 whereas safety factor against overturning as 1.2. * 5.0 m 2.5 m 6.5 m SSS
