A method for constructing a ring-shaped artificial reef and a coastal ecological field

This invention relates to the field of water environment engineering technology, and discloses a ring-shaped columnar artificial reef and a method for constructing a coastal ecological field. The artificial reef includes composite piles, first connectors, and connecting beams. Multiple composite piles are vertically set in the mudflats and arranged circumferentially. Multiple first connectors are correspondingly set on the composite piles, and multiple connecting beams are arranged side by side. The two ends of the connecting beams are respectively connected to the first connectors on the adjacent composite piles. The connecting beams and composite piles form a ring-shaped closed structure. In this invention, when the composite piles are set in the mudflats, the connecting beams between the composite piles can play a supporting role on the mudflats, preventing the composite piles from sinking too deeply and causing the entire ring-shaped columnar artificial reef to sink into the mudflat silt. The ring-shaped closed structure becomes a habitat for marine organisms, which is conducive to maintaining the stability of the coastal ecological environment. The vertically set composite piles can realize the flow velocity of the shallow area, cut off the surface gullies, prevent further erosion of the surface, and stabilize the surface.
