Rip Rap
Riprap is a layer of large stones that protects soil from erosion in areas of high or concentrated flows. It is especially useful for armoring channel and ditch banks, among other features. Construction staff may also pair riprap with other stormwater control measures to reduce stormwater flow rates.

Riprap or rock armour is most commonly made up of granite and limestone. Advantages. Riprap offers an easy-to-use method for decreasing water velocity and protecting slopes from erosion. It is simple to install and maintain. Riprap provides some water quality benefits by increasing roughness and decreasing the velocity of the flow, inducing settling.
