A modified Goda''s wave pressure formula have been proposed in this study tocalculate irregular wave pressure acting on deepwater breakwaters. On the basisof several lab and field datas,the comparison and disscussion between pressureformulas such as Goda''s formula,Sainflou''s formula was made on pressure distri-bution,total wave force,moment and accuracy. The result of this study shows that the present formula can mostly be appliedin wave conditions at high seas,and have better results on the statistical value of wave pressure and run-up height due to irregular wave than pressureformulas from regular wave. Prediction of present formula is closer to data thanother formula in pressure distribution,total force and moment.Present formula and Goda''s formula are more accurate when calibration with the case of slidingsand nonslidings of upright sections of prototype breakwaters. Come to the con-clusions,present formula is suitable for practical design of deepwater break-waters.
