Rules for scour protection in front of sheet pile in the present Chinese coastal engineering codes are not very complete, so design of scour protection for oversea project is difficult to be accepted. Considering of this, combined with international professional publication and standards, the method to calculate the scour protection in front of sheet pile which is accepted by most of engineers internationally is summarized. Moreover, scours protection for an actual project are calculated and compared by the aforementioned method and Chinese code. On the basis of the results, the shortage of Chinese code that the ship-induced scour isn’t considered is put forward. It is suggested to revise the present Chinese code so as to joint with the international codes.
