5 Large Waves VS Buildings

[@philippschwartzerdt3431]

What never ceases to amaze me, is that somebody first purchased that land, then applied to build a house on that spot, got the permission, then has had the house build at these exposed areas and everybody went along like saying: *”yep, perfect spot to build a house”*

[@sarah.phillipa854]

i live in a house on the beach, been there forever, my mum said that the water used to splash against the windows , but there are groines there now and the water doesnt come anywhere near the house.

[@Hendosey]

OMG SAME i was always saying that in like some places like that thailand tsumanmi in 2004 the people didnt know it was coming so like all of the houses got destoroyed and 25,000 people died its just not worth it and when i was n vacation in the OBX we rented a house near the ocean and i kept getting so nervous dont know why and the houses lititrally on the beach are millions of dollars what if a huuricane hit's there? you know!

Very awesome to take in how much of the world I have not seen up close and personal. I love living on the East coast though.

[@lanibear2019]

As an FYI the homes in Pacifica were built away from the beach. They had a ton of room away from the beach or cliff when they were built but decades of terrible storms and sea level rise lead to the erosion of the cliff face. I know since I live there.

That's so cool having the surf come right up over your balcony. Long as you keep your doors closed, right?

[@joewoodchuck3824]

It appears that in a number of cases where there are sea walls, only the wave tops made it beyond that barrier and only because of momentum did it keep going in the original direction of the wave. What might be tried in such circumstances is to use a deflector on top of the sea walls to redirect the water away from the wall to keep it from splashing over and to use the direction reversal to help cancel some of the wave energy. it's worth a try.

The number 1 scene was at Pacifica, California. The San Andreas Fault runs just inland there and goes into the ocean to cross the Golden Gate just north of there. The building pictured is gone now, but it was once 50 meters from the edge. The ground there is sandstone, formed the last time that area was below the sea. It was pushed up by the movement along the fault and now the sea is taking it back.
