- Revetment - Wikipedia
A revetment in stream restoration, river engineering or coastal engineering is a facing of impact-resistant material (such as stone, concrete, sandbags, or wooden piles) applied to a bank or wall in order to absorb the energy of incoming water and protect it from erosion
- Streams: Tree Revetments - Missouri Department of Conservation
By the time the revetment trees have decayed, the bank should be stabilized by the roots of the living trees As an added benefit, tree revetments provide excellent fish and wildlife cover You must get a permit from the U S Army Corps of Engineers before tree revetments can be built on some streams
- Revetments - Texas Department of Transportation
Generally, revetments are located on the outside bank of bends where bank recession or erosion is most active as a result of impinging flow (see Figure 7‑11)
- Bank Stabilization | CSKT | Division of Fish, Wildlife, Recreation . . .
The problem of unstable banks on newly restored stream reaches has two primary solutions: rootwad revetments and large woody debris jams Both are constructed out of natural, native materials
- REVETMENT Definition Meaning - Merriam-Webster
The meaning of REVETMENT is a facing (as of stone or concrete) to sustain an embankment
- Revetments - Coastal Wiki
Revetments are always made as sloping structures and are often constructed as permeable rubble mound structures using natural stones or concrete blocks Rubble mound armoring enhances wave energy absorption and minimizes reflection and wave run-up

Marsh Toe Protection Revetments (a k a : riprap at the waterward toe of marsh) are a shore-parallel, sloping structure constructed against a marsh escarpment to protect the marsh wetland roots from undermining
- Seawalls, Bulkheads, and Revetments - U. S. National Park Service
Revetments, like seawalls, protect resources landward of the structure but likely at the expense of the seaward slope Materials such as armorstones, stepped concrete, or rip-rap stones are placed directly in the existing slope face to absorb wave energy and strong currents
