Abstract
Demak has 34,1 km coastline and located in 6043'26'' - 7009'43'' South Latitude and 110027'58'' - 110048'47'' East Longitude. In the last few years rapid shoreline and erosion has threatened Demak coastal area. No less than 3000 villages on Java suffer similar problems. Hard structures such as dykes and breakwaters is one of the method that is commonly used to solve this problem. However, this method may fail to provide adequate protection to the environment and become counterproductive. One of the alternative to solve the problem is using hybrid engineering concept. This study aims is to assess the distribution model of the sediment on the application of technology as a hybrid structure for the mitigationand rehabilitation of coastal areas in Demak. This research using quantitative method, including field surveys and mathematical modeling methods. The model show that the sedimention is quite big in highest flood condition and must have the right structure for the hybrid engineering. This study is expected to answer the question of the erosion problem in the District Sayung, Demak.
