The objective of the standard is to provide designers and suppliers with information on the properties of rock sources that may allow the supply of large rock blocks suitable for the protection of sea walls, river banks, dam facings and other structures requiring protection against wave action or erosion caused by flowing water.

This Standard aims to provide guidance for investigating and specifying sources of natural, block-sized rock materials for use as armourstone on sea walls, harbour and river foreshores, or dam walls. Armourstone ranges from several kilograms up to many tonnes in mass. Dimensions of the armourstone may be the defining design requirement.
