Definitions

  • the aim of the present invention is to conceive and carry out a system for protecting the shores, which system consists of a barrier obtained by utilizing simple cheap components which do not prevent a washing of the sediments and do not damage the coast ecosystem.
  • each modular component shaped like a holed octagon must be connected with other modular octagon-shaped components.
  • each modular component 1 is provided with brackets 5 at the middle points of its outward sides.
  • Each bracket is made of steel or other suited metal and shows a slot 6 in which a screw or the like is inserted.
  • the modular components are assembled together according to an angular mutual arrangement of about 90 degrees so as to form a three-side pyramid-shaped module.
  • the stability of the so-obtained module is very high.
  • the material utilized for the manufacture of the said modular components is the concrete.
  • a kind of concrete consisting of natural substances such as washed sand and broken gravel and it is better to avoid an utilization of composite materials including cement that has not been integrated with additives and has not been fluidified.
  • the composition of the concrete does not include synthetic disarming agents for the forming operations.
  • the surfaces of the modular element are then washed with salt water in order to lower the pH of the surface. In this way, it is possible to obtain an artificial "stone” which is suited especially to be utilized in the ecosystems of the sea and lake coasts.
  • the mechanical small parts for coupling the modular elements are made of stainless steel, which is absolutely unalterable in water or salt water.
  • the utilization of special metals such as chromium, vanadium, tungsten and titanium is avoided because they are reactive metals which modify both the acidity of the surrounding area and the electrolysis paths of the structure and would be a biochemical hindrance to the proliferation of the underwater flora and fauna.
  • the assembling operation of the modules is very simple and rapid.
  • the modules can be assembled above ground and then, laid underwater. However, it is also possible to lay the single elements on the seabed and assemble them after.
  • new ecosystems may be created in unusual areas or where it is more convenient or necessary to do so.
