Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of water conservancy engineering technology, specifically to hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls. Background Technology

[0002] Hydraulic retaining walls, as common structural facilities in water conservancy projects, are widely used in the construction of bank walls for rivers, lakes, and irrigation canals. Their main functions are to prevent flooding and tides, effectively prevent the collapse of the soil behind the wall, and ensure the stability and safety of the embankment. They have significant practical value in water conservancy project construction.

[0003] Existing hydraulic retaining wall structures suffer from functional limitations, only fulfilling basic hydraulic functions such as flood control, tide prevention, preventing soil collapse behind the wall, and maintaining embankment stability. They lack additional practical uses, and the structural design does not consider the diversified use of space resources, failing to meet the need to expand other practical and even economic values ​​while ensuring basic hydraulic functions. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a hollow box type hydraulic retaining wall to solve the above problems.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall, comprising a hollow box-type cavity formed by a bottom slab, a water-facing side wall, an earth-facing side wall, and a top structure;

[0006] The water-facing sidewall includes a permeable structure configured to allow water within the empty chamber to exchange with external water bodies while preventing aquaculture organisms from passing through.

[0007] This hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall comprises a hollow-box cavity formed by a base slab, water-facing side walls, earth-facing side walls, and a top structure. This cavity is positioned along the waterfront, creating an integrated structure that combines hydraulic protection and aquaculture functions. The permeable structure of the water-facing side walls allows for free exchange of water within the hollow-box cavity with the external water body, enabling the cavity to directly utilize water from the external water source to maintain the internal water flow and ecological balance, providing the foundation for the cavity to perform its additional functions. Simultaneously, the permeable structure is specially configured to precisely prevent aquaculture organisms from passing through the cavity, ensuring that the organisms are confined within the hollow-box cavity and prevented from entering the external water body.

[0008] This hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall, on the one hand, effectively undertakes the basic function of a hydraulic retaining wall by relying on the synergistic effect of its various structural components, ensuring the stability of the bank slope; on the other hand, the water exchange enabled by the permeable structure creates favorable conditions for the cavity to carry out aquaculture activities using external water sources, while its characteristic of preventing aquaculture organisms from passing through ensures the orderly conduct of such activities. This makes the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall capable of carrying out additional activities that can generate economic value while fulfilling its basic hydraulic functions.

[0009] In one alternative embodiment, the permeable structure includes a permeable enclosure and longitudinal beams and columns for supporting the permeable enclosure.

[0010] In this permeable structure, the support of longitudinal beams and columns ensures the stable function of the permeable enclosure. This allows the cavity to fully utilize external water sources to maintain a suitable water environment and meet the needs of additional functions such as aquaculture. At the same time, the permeable enclosure prevents aquaculture organisms from entering the external water area and ensures the overall structural stability of the water-facing sidewall. This allows the permeable structure to achieve water exchange and block aquaculture organisms while working in conjunction with other structures to support the normal operation of the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall.

[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the permeable enclosure is removable.

[0012] When maintenance or replacement of the permeable enclosure is required, it can be easily removed from the supporting structure composed of longitudinal beams and columns. For example, if the permeable enclosure becomes clogged or damaged due to long-term use, affecting water exchange efficiency or failing to effectively prevent aquaculture organisms from passing through, the old permeable enclosure can be removed and a new one installed. Furthermore, the detachable design facilitates adjustments when different mesh sizes or materials are needed to replace the permeable enclosure based on changes in the aquaculture species or adjustments to the external aquatic environment. This ensures the permeable enclosure always functions effectively, guaranteeing smooth water exchange between the empty chamber and the external water area, while effectively preventing aquaculture organisms from entering the external water area, maintaining normal aquaculture operations. On the other hand, it extends the overall service life of the permeable structure, reduces maintenance costs, and allows the empty chamber hydraulic retaining wall to continuously and stably perform its combined hydraulic protection and aquaculture functions during long-term use.

[0013] In one alternative implementation, the mesh size of the permeable enclosure is determined based on the body size of the organism to be cultured.

[0014] In one alternative embodiment, the top structure is provided with a hole extending into the empty box-shaped cavity, the hole being configured as a feeding hole and / or a ventilation hole.

[0015] The perforated design simplifies feeding and aeration processes in aquaculture, eliminating the need for complex additional equipment or structures and reducing the difficulty and cost of aquaculture management. Simultaneously, the well-designed perforations meet the food needs of the farmed organisms while ensuring ventilation and oxygen supply within the cavity, guaranteeing a stable and suitable aquaculture environment. This further enhances the practicality and efficiency of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall in aquaculture, enabling it to better fulfill its additional functions of flood control, tide prevention, and bank protection while also better realizing the added benefits of aquaculture.

[0016] In one alternative implementation, the top structure includes an openable cover.

[0017] When it is necessary to inspect, harvest aquaculture organisms, maintain permeable enclosures, or perform other internal operations within the empty box-type cavity, convenient access can be achieved by opening the cover. When the cover is closed, it forms a complete roof together with the other parts of the top structure, ensuring the overall function of the top structure. The openable cover provides a convenient passage for internal operations within the empty box-type cavity, allowing various necessary tasks to be completed without damaging the top structure, reducing operational difficulty and cost. At the same time, the installation of the cover does not affect the original design load-bearing capacity of the top structure, and it can still meet the load requirements of land-based functions such as pedestrian and vehicular traffic. This further enhances the convenience and practicality of operation and maintenance of the empty box-type hydraulic retaining wall, which already provides flood control, tide protection, bank safety, and aquaculture functions.

[0018] In one alternative implementation, the load-bearing capacity of the top structure is configured to support pedestrian or vehicular loads.

[0019] In one optional embodiment, drainage holes are provided on the soil-facing side wall, and a gravel filter belt is provided on the soil-facing side of the drainage holes.

[0020] Drainage holes are installed on the side of the retaining wall adjacent to the soil, and a gravel filter belt is installed on the soil-adjacent side of the drainage holes. The number and elevation of the drainage holes are determined according to the water level variation range of the external water body. The drainage holes can penetrate the soil-adjacent side of the retaining wall to drain the accumulated water in the backfill behind the wall, effectively reducing the water pressure generated by the backfill behind the wall and avoiding adverse effects on the structural stability of the retaining wall due to excessive water pressure. The gravel filter belt installed on the soil-adjacent side of the drainage holes can filter the water flowing into the drainage holes, preventing fine soil particles in the backfill behind the wall from being washed away with the water, preventing the drainage holes from being blocked, and ensuring the continuous and effective functioning of the drainage system.

[0021] The combination of drainage holes and gravel filter belts significantly enhances the structural stability of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall. By promptly draining accumulated water behind the wall and reducing water pressure, it ensures that the retaining wall can reliably fulfill its basic functions of flood control, moisture protection, and preventing soil collapse behind the wall. Simultaneously, the filtration effect of the gravel filter belts ensures the long-term smooth operation of the drainage system, reduces maintenance costs, and maintains the stability and safety of the retaining wall during long-term use, providing a reliable structural foundation for its additional functions such as aquaculture.

[0022] In one alternative embodiment, the interior of the empty box-type cavity is further provided with one or more of longitudinal beams, transverse beams, and / or support columns to enhance structural strength.

[0023] In one optional embodiment, the interior of the empty box-type cavity is further provided with a transverse partition for separating spaces, so that each independent space inside the empty box-type hydraulic retaining wall can carry out aquaculture independently.

[0024] Transverse diaphragms are arranged between the base slab, supporting columns, beams, and adjacent side walls, forming transverse partitions within the hollow box-shaped cavity, allowing each independent space inside the hollow box-shaped hydraulic retaining wall to conduct aquaculture independently. The transverse diaphragms can be designed as fixed or removable, permeable or impermeable, depending on the usage requirements.

[0025] Secondly, the present invention also provides a waterfront structure, including a plurality of hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls arranged along the waterfront, wherein a water-stopping structure is provided at the joint between adjacent hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls.

[0026] Multiple hollow-box hydraulic retaining walls installed along the shoreline form a continuous protective barrier, enhancing the overall protection of the shoreline and adapting to the construction needs of shorelines of varying lengths. The water-stopping structures at the joints prevent the loss of fine soil particles from the backfill behind the walls, ensuring the integrity and safety of the bank slope. Aquaculture can be carried out along the entire shoreline of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining walls, comprehensively improving the economic benefits of the shoreline structure and achieving an organic combination of water conservancy protection and resource utilization.

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] Hydraulic retaining walls, as common structural facilities in water conservancy projects, are widely used in the construction of bank walls for rivers, lakes, and irrigation canals. Their main functions are to prevent flooding and tides, effectively prevent the collapse of the soil behind the wall, and ensure the stability and safety of the embankment. They have significant practical value in water conservancy project construction.

[0046] Existing hydraulic retaining wall structures suffer from functional limitations, only fulfilling basic hydraulic functions such as flood control, tide prevention, preventing soil collapse behind the wall, and maintaining embankment stability. They lack additional practical uses, and the structural design does not consider the diversified use of space resources, failing to meet the need to expand other practical and even economic values ​​while ensuring basic hydraulic functions.

[0047] The following combination Figures 1 to 3 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0048] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in one aspect, an empty box-type hydraulic retaining wall is provided, comprising an empty box-type cavity formed by a base plate 1, a water-facing side wall 2, an earth-facing side wall 3, and a top structure; the water-facing side wall 2 includes a permeable structure configured to allow water in the empty box-type cavity to exchange with external water and to prevent aquaculture organisms from passing through.

[0049] This hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall comprises a hollow-box cavity formed by a base slab 1, a water-facing side wall 2, an earth-facing side wall 3, and a top structure. This cavity is positioned along the waterfront, forming an integrated structure that combines hydraulic protection and aquaculture functions. The permeable structure of the water-facing side wall 2 allows for free exchange of water within the hollow-box cavity with the external water area, enabling the cavity to directly utilize water from the external water source to maintain the internal water flow and ecological balance, providing the foundation for the cavity to perform its additional functions. Simultaneously, the permeable structure is specially configured to precisely prevent aquaculture organisms from passing through the cavity, ensuring that the aquaculture organisms are confined within the hollow-box cavity and prevented from entering the external water area.

[0050] This hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall, on the one hand, effectively undertakes the basic function of a hydraulic retaining wall by relying on the synergistic effect of its various structural components, ensuring the stability of the bank slope; on the other hand, the water exchange enabled by the permeable structure creates favorable conditions for the cavity to carry out aquaculture activities using external water sources, while its characteristic of preventing aquaculture organisms from passing through ensures the orderly conduct of such activities. This makes the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall capable of carrying out additional activities that can generate economic value while fulfilling its basic hydraulic functions.

[0051] Specifically, from an economic benefit perspective, the permeable structure allows for the exchange of water within the empty chamber with external water bodies, providing a foundation for aquaculture using external water sources. Its ability to prevent the passage of cultured organisms ensures that these organisms are stably confined within the chamber, forming a relatively independent aquaculture space. This space does not require additional water or land resources, avoiding land occupation costs and water use permit costs associated with adding new aquaculture areas.

[0052] Meanwhile, the natural water exchange facilitated by the permeable structure reduces the investment and energy consumption of artificial water exchange equipment, thereby lowering infrastructure and maintenance costs in the aquaculture process. The empty box-type cavity, serving as a centralized aquaculture space, facilitates large-scale farming, improving efficiency and yield, and directly increasing aquaculture profits.

[0053] In one embodiment, the permeable structure includes a permeable enclosure 5 and longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8 for supporting the permeable enclosure 5.

[0054] In this embodiment, the permeable structure is composed of a permeable enclosure 5, longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8. The longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8 provide support and a stable installation foundation for the permeable enclosure 5, ensuring that the permeable enclosure 5 can be stably installed on the water-facing side wall 2.

[0055] In terms of operation, the support of the longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8 maintains the permeable enclosure 5 in a specific shape and position, thereby reliably realizing the exchange of water between the empty box-type cavity and the external water area. Water from the external water area can enter the cavity through the permeable enclosure 5, and water from the cavity can also flow into the external water area through the permeable enclosure 5, forming a good water circulation. At the same time, the mesh design of the permeable enclosure 5 itself can effectively prevent the cultured organisms in the cavity from passing through, confining them within the cavity.

[0056] In this permeable structure, the support of the longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8 ensures the stable functioning of the permeable enclosure 5. This allows the cavity to fully utilize external water sources to maintain a suitable water environment and meet the needs of additional functions such as aquaculture. At the same time, the barrier effect of the permeable enclosure 5 ensures that aquaculture organisms do not enter the external water area. It also ensures the overall structural stability of the water-facing side wall 2. This allows the permeable structure to achieve water exchange and block aquaculture organisms while working in conjunction with other structures to support the normal operation of the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall.

[0057] In one embodiment, the permeable enclosure 5 is removable.

[0058] When maintenance or replacement of the permeable enclosure 5 is required, it can be easily removed from the supporting structure formed by the longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8. For example, if the permeable enclosure 5 becomes clogged or damaged due to long-term use, affecting water exchange efficiency or failing to effectively prevent aquaculture organisms from passing through, the old permeable enclosure 5 can be removed and a new one installed. Furthermore, the detachable design facilitates the replacement of permeable enclosure 5 with different mesh sizes or materials depending on changes in the aquaculture species or adjustments to the external aquatic environment. This ensures that the permeable enclosure 5 always functions effectively, ensuring smooth water exchange between the empty chamber and the external water area, while effectively preventing aquaculture organisms from entering the external water area, maintaining normal aquaculture operations. On the other hand, it extends the overall service life of the permeable structure, reduces maintenance costs, and allows the empty chamber hydraulic retaining wall to continuously and stably perform its combined hydraulic protection and aquaculture functions during long-term use.

[0059] For example, in this hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall structure, the detachable design of the permeable enclosure 5 can be achieved in the following ways:

[0060] The permeable enclosure 5 is connected by bolts. Pre-drilled connection holes on the edge of the permeable enclosure 5 are used to secure it to the corresponding bolt holes on the longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8. When replacement is needed, simply unscrew the bolts to remove the permeable enclosure 5, replace it with a new enclosure, and then tighten the bolts again to secure it.

[0061] Alternatively, a slotted connection can be used, with slotted structures set on the longitudinal beams 7 and columns 8. The edge of the permeable enclosure 5 is designed to match the shape of the slot. During installation, the enclosure is snapped into the slot to achieve fixation, and during disassembly, the enclosure can be directly removed along the direction of the slot.

[0062] In one embodiment, the mesh size of the permeable enclosure 5 is determined based on the body size of the organism to be cultured.

[0063] The mesh size of the permeable enclosure 5 is designed to accommodate different sizes of aquaculture organisms. The mesh must be small enough to effectively prevent the organisms from passing through and entering the external water area from the empty enclosure. Simultaneously, the mesh must maintain a certain size to ensure sufficient water exchange between the empty enclosure and the external water area, meeting the aquaculture environment's requirements for water quality and circulation. For example, if smaller shrimp are being cultured, the mesh size will be reduced to prevent escape; if larger fish are being cultured, the mesh size can be appropriately increased to further improve water exchange efficiency while preventing fish from passing through.

[0064] By matching the mesh size to the size of the organisms to be cultured, the permeable enclosure 5 can reliably limit the activity range of the cultured organisms, ensuring the orderly conduct of aquaculture, and also ensure that the water exchange between the cavity and the external water area is not hindered, providing a suitable growth environment for the cultured organisms. Thus, the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall can efficiently realize the additional function of aquaculture while fulfilling the basic function of hydraulic engineering.

[0065] In one embodiment, the top structure is provided with a hole 9 extending into the empty box-shaped cavity, and the hole 9 is configured as a feeding hole or a ventilation hole.

[0066] In this embodiment, the holes 9 provided on the top structure that extend into the empty box-shaped cavity serve both feeding and ventilation functions, and their number, spacing, and size are determined according to the actual needs of aquaculture.

[0067] In terms of operation, when used as a feeding hole, the aquaculture personnel can put feed into the empty box-shaped cavity through this hole 9, directly providing food for the cultured organisms inside the cavity without having to open the entire top structure, making the operation convenient and efficient. When used as a ventilation hole, the hole 9 can connect the empty box-shaped cavity with the outside atmosphere, promote air circulation, increase the dissolved oxygen content in the water inside the cavity, improve the air quality of the aquaculture environment, and provide good conditions for the growth of cultured organisms.

[0068] The design of the perforation 9 simplifies feeding and aeration operations in aquaculture, eliminating the need for complex additional equipment or structures and reducing the difficulty and cost of aquaculture management. Simultaneously, the well-designed perforation 9 not only meets the food needs of the farmed organisms but also ensures ventilation and oxygen supply within the cavity, guaranteeing a stable and suitable aquaculture environment. This further enhances the practicality and efficiency of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall in aquaculture, enabling it to better fulfill its additional functions of flood control, tide prevention, and bank protection while also better realizing the additional benefits of aquaculture.

[0069] In one embodiment, the hole 9 is configured as a feeding hole and a ventilation hole.

[0070] In one embodiment, the top structure includes an openable cover 4.

[0071] When it is necessary to inspect, harvest aquaculture organisms, maintain the permeable enclosure 5, or perform other internal operations within the empty box-type cavity, convenient access can be achieved by opening the cover plate 4. When the cover plate 4 is closed, it forms a complete top together with the other parts of the top structure, ensuring the overall function of the top structure. The openable cover plate 4 provides a convenient passage for internal operations within the empty box-type cavity, allowing various necessary tasks to be completed without damaging the top structure, reducing operational difficulty and cost. At the same time, the installation of the cover plate 4 does not affect the original design load-bearing capacity of the top structure, and it can still meet the load requirements of land-based functions such as pedestrian and vehicular traffic. This further enhances the convenience and practicality of operation and maintenance of the empty box-type hydraulic retaining wall, which already provides flood control, tide protection, bank safety, and aquaculture functions.

[0072] In one embodiment, the load-bearing capacity of the top structure is configured to support pedestrian or vehicular loads.

[0073] During the design phase, structural strength and stability calculations were performed on components such as the top structure beams 6, based on different load requirements for pedestrians and vehicles, to ensure that they would not deform or be damaged when bearing the corresponding loads, and to stably bear the pressure brought by activities such as people walking and vehicles passing through.

[0074] The top structure, while ensuring the structural integrity of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining wall, makes full use of land space resources, allowing it to be used as a pedestrian walkway, vehicle passage, etc., thus achieving diversified use of space. It does not affect the basic functions of the retaining wall in flood control, tide prevention, and ensuring the safety of the bank, nor does it interfere with the additional function of aquaculture within the hollow-box cavity, further enhancing the overall benefits and practical value of the structure.

[0075] In one embodiment, a drainage hole 10 is provided on the soil-facing side wall 3, and a gravel filter belt 11 is provided on the soil-facing side of the drainage hole 10.

[0076] In this embodiment, the adjacent wall 3 is provided with drainage holes 10, and the adjacent side of the drainage holes 10 is equipped with a gravel filter belt 11. The number and elevation of the drainage holes 10 are determined according to the water level variation range of the outer water body. The drainage holes 10 can penetrate the adjacent wall 3 to drain the accumulated water in the backfill behind the wall, effectively reducing the water pressure generated by the backfill behind the wall and avoiding adverse effects on the structural stability of the retaining wall due to excessive water pressure. The gravel filter belt 11 installed on the adjacent side of the drainage holes 10 can filter the water flowing into the drainage holes 10, preventing fine soil particles in the backfill behind the wall from being washed away with the water, preventing the drainage holes 10 from being blocked, and ensuring the continuous and effective functioning of the drainage function.

[0077] The combination of drainage holes 10 and the gravel filter belt 11 significantly improves the structural stability of the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall. By promptly draining water accumulated behind the wall and reducing water pressure, it ensures that the retaining wall can reliably fulfill its basic functions of flood control, moisture protection, and preventing soil collapse behind the wall. At the same time, the filtration effect of the gravel filter belt 11 ensures the long-term smooth flow of the drainage system, reduces maintenance costs, and keeps the retaining wall stable and safe during long-term use, providing a reliable structural foundation for its additional functions such as aquaculture.

[0078] In one embodiment, the interior of the empty box-type cavity is further provided with one or more of the following: longitudinal beams 7, transverse beams 6, and / or support columns 8, to enhance structural strength.

[0079] In this embodiment, the interior of the empty box-type cavity is provided with one or more of longitudinal beams 7, transverse beams 6 and / or support columns 8. The main function of these components is to enhance the overall structural strength of the empty box-type hydraulic retaining wall.

[0080] In terms of operation, the longitudinal beams 7 and transverse beams 6 are arranged along the longitudinal and transverse directions inside the cavity, while the support columns 8 extend upward from the bottom plate 1 to the top structure. They work together to form a stable force-bearing system, which can effectively disperse and transmit various loads borne by the cavity, including but not limited to the pressure of the soil behind the wall, the water pressure of the external water area, and the pedestrian or vehicular loads on the top structure, so as to prevent the cavity from deforming or being damaged due to excessive stress.

[0081] The effect of this design is that, by adding longitudinal beams 7, transverse beams 6, and / or support columns 8, the structural stability and load-bearing capacity of the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall are significantly improved, enabling it to reliably perform its basic functions of flood control, tide prevention, and preventing soil collapse behind the wall in complex hydraulic environments. At the same time, the enhanced structural strength provides a solid guarantee for additional functions such as aquaculture within the cavity, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the cavity and further improving the overall performance and service life of the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall.

[0082] In one embodiment, the interior of the empty box-type cavity is further provided with a transverse partition 12 for dividing the space.

[0083] In this embodiment, the transverse partition 12 is arranged between the base plate 1, the supporting column 8, the crossbeam 6, and the adjacent side wall 3, forming a transverse partition inside the hollow box-type cavity, allowing each independent space inside the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining wall to carry out aquaculture independently. The transverse partition 12 can be designed as fixed or detachable, permeable or impermeable, depending on the usage requirements.

[0084] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect provides a waterfront structure, including a plurality of hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls arranged along the waterfront, wherein a water-stopping structure is provided at the joint between adjacent hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls.

[0085] In this embodiment, the waterfront structure consists of multiple hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls set along the waterfront line, and a water-stopping structure is provided at the joint between adjacent hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls.

[0086] In terms of operation, multiple hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls are arranged sequentially along the shoreline, forming a continuous shoreline protection system that works synergistically to prevent flooding and tides, prevent soil collapse behind the walls, and maintain the stability of the embankment. The water-stopping structure at the joints prevents the loss of fine soil particles from the backfill behind the walls, avoiding adverse effects on the retaining wall structure and bank slope stability caused by soil erosion behind the walls, and ensuring reliable sealing at the connections between the hollow box-type hydraulic retaining walls.

[0087] Multiple hollow-box hydraulic retaining walls installed along the shoreline form a continuous protective barrier, enhancing the overall protection of the shoreline and adapting to the construction needs of shorelines of varying lengths. The water-stopping structures at the joints ensure the integrity and safety of the bank slope, preventing slope damage caused by the loss of fine-grained soil from the backfill behind the walls. Furthermore, aquaculture can be carried out along the entire shoreline of the hollow-box hydraulic retaining walls, thus improving the overall economic benefits of the shoreline structure and achieving an organic combination of water conservancy protection and resource utilization.
