As a keynote lecture this paper does not focus on one subject, but treats four main aspects tosome depth, including new not yet published items. The first item is on definition of design waveclimate and parameters. The design method for rock slopes, the Van der Meer formulae, have been related to the version in the new Rock Manual. A method has been given to calculatecumulative damage in an easy way. A new proposed classification of berm breakwaters hasbeen given with new design information on berm breakwaters. Berm breakwaters can bedivided in hardly, partly and fully reshaping berm breakwater. Finally, the Wave OvertoppingSimulator has been described with its main results and conclusions on strength of grasscovered landward slopes of dikes. Moreover, the Simulator has also been used to test verticalstorm walls. The most recent innovation is the wave run-up simulation.
