ARTIFICIAL REEF FOR COASTAL PROTECTION
A module for an artificial reef is substantially in the shape of a continuous arch and is formed as a skeletal framework comprising a plurality of spaced apart transverse beams that each define a portion of the arch, and a plurality of longitudinal beams attached to the transverse beams and extending the length of the arch. The longitudinal beams provide a barrier to waves when one or more modules are anchored to the sea floor. The module is additionally usable as an electrified reef to accelerate mineral deposits on the beams that encourages marine life and increases the effectiveness of the wave barrier.
