SUBMARINE CYLINDER BARRIER TO STOP FLOODING FROM TSUNAMI AND TROPICAL STORMS

摘要

A method for constructing a submarine barrier against shock waves such as Tsunami and/or against high sea waves, the barrier being built at an intended location in the sea, is disclosed wherein the method comprises the steps of: -providing at least one cylindrical framework (3, 12, 14, 16) with sidewalls having an empty inner space and a height sufficient to extend from a seafloor (2) to a mean sea level (1) at the intended location, -depositing the at least one cylindrical framework (3, 12, 14, 16) into the sea at the intended location, wherein the at least one cylindrical framework (3, 12, 14, 16) is empty or mainly empty or flooded with seawater and -filling the empty inner space with filling material (10) at the intended location. This method enables an efficient construction of a submarine barrier.
