Jim Boudreaux's Flood Levee and Barrier Protection System, the "Boxes" being Tested in real time. This test solves the main problem that has not been addressed. "The Liquefied Zone". This test shows how the system not only corrects the main problem, "The Liquefied Zone", but stops it completely. It also shows how the "Box" concept stops storm surge and provides land restoration all done at the same time. This is the proof, that the Boxes stops storm surges. As you can see there is no surge water passing underneath of the Boxes. Once the Boxes are in place, you have maximum protection. This is a 15ft storm surge. The Boxes are 10ft high. Boxes can hold back higher storm surges. Boxes does not move. Imagine these Boxes 1 mile or longer stretched out along the coast and on the barrier islands.
For more details on other ways this concept may be used, please visit: http://jboudreaux.page.tl for more information.
Thank you for your observation and comments. You have observed the concept of the Boxes at work. The sediments have built up inside the Boxes up to the hole to allow flow to the connecting Boxes. The water could not go beneath the Boxes, thus stopping "The Liquefied Zone". Therefore the water with sediments had no choice but to go around and behind the boxes to build up. The longer the Boxes are, the more protection from storm surge you will have. Thanks again for your comments.

it seems that the sedimenst seem to be gathering as you predicted, but it seems that they have been transferred from the sides and around the blocks. if you wanted to test if the sediments will come over the block and build up behind it ... you need to carry this experiment out on a longer test-wall .
