Construction of buildings in deep sea by conventional methods is extremely difficult. A new technology by using steel fences and anchors, and fixed by inserted rocks, will be demonstrated with the example of efficient vertical Tsunami barriers extending at least 50 m up to 4 km below sea level. New gained land surface and also the fishing farms between Tsunami barrier and shore may compensate most of the costs. Walls and buildings in deep sea may assist deep-sea mining. Vertical walls extending above sea level, preferably protected with hanging triangular structures as surge stoppers, with massive stabilization landward, will replace conventional dikes and levees and will save land areas. Vertical walls of fences extending above sea level, which are circular and filled with rocks, surround pillars to protect off-shore platforms, windpower plants, bridge pillars and other submarine structures.
Barrier against shock waves such as Tsunami and/or against high sea waves comprising a wall extending preferably 50 m to 500 m, maximum 4km below sea level, a wall of which the lowest end is adapted to be fixed on the sea floor or in the ground, said wall being furthermore designed to be stabilized in a substantially vertical position and to be protected against erosion above sea level by hanging and replaceable surge stoppers or wave deflectors.
Method for constructing the double-fence-rock barrier comprising of the following steps:
Using the sea-water reservoirs between Tsunami barriers and the coast for large-scale fish farming, the reservoirs being separated by supply roads which allow access to the open sea by ships and fishing boats.
Use of a circular (or other closed shape) single outside fence which is fixed to the pillar or other submerged building to be protected, by means of distance holders for filling the gap between pillar and fence with rocks or other solid materials.
Method of fabricating double-fence-rock structures of three to more than 100 m height and 5 m to more than 100 m horizontal length to be lowered into deep sea to assist deep-sea mining, in order to define and separate specific areas, and in order to mark paths, directions and geographic points;
