Rip rap is a type of rock or concrete material used for protective purposes in civil engineering and landscaping. It is typically placed along shorelines, riverbanks, and slopes to prevent erosion and stabilize structures against water flow and wave action. The rocks are usually irregularly shaped and vary in size, providing a durable barrier that absorbs and deflects energy from water. Rip rap is commonly used in the construction of retaining walls, dams, and other hydraulic structures.
