Concrete perforated wall platform. A type of concrete gravity structure, incorporating the "Jarlan" type of breakwater wall, of which there are several examples. Generally the foundation is a raft protected by a perforated wall to minimize scouring and erosion of the underlying subsoil. A tall central core surrounded by an outer lobate wall, also protected against the forces of the sea by "Jarlan" perforations, rises from the base and supports a concrete deck. 1, record 1, English, - Jarlan%20breakwater%20wall

[...] on peut éviter l'affouillement en conservant la structure de façon à ce que les vitesses locales d'écoulement soient maintenues inférieures aux valeurs critiques d'affouillement. La Société Doris estime avoir atteint ce résultat au moyen du «mur Jarlan». Ce mur, percé de plusieurs centaines de trous d'un diamètre de l'ordre d'un mètre, entoure la plate-forme et permet au fluide de s'écouler avec beaucoup moins de turbulence et d'affouillement que n'en créerait un mur ordinaire. 1, record 1, French, - mur%20Jarlan
