(3842) Straight (line, surface) sharp cut-water, Equilateral cut-water, or Sixty degree straight sharp cut-water
A sharp cut-water formed by two straight surfaces meeting at a line. Since the two straight sides of the cut-water and the width of the pier form a triangle, it is, sometimes, classified according to triangle properties (viz. equilateral cut-water) and also according to the value of the nose angle (as 60o straight sharp cut-water).
