(54) Modular elements to be cast and fixed in seabeds or the like for the re-formation of aquatic life


(57) The present manufactured articles consist of essentially flat octagonal elements made of reinforced concrete. These elements are assembled together to obtain structures which are arranged on seabeds or lakebeds in such a way to be statically stable. In this way it is possible to create an ideal condition for a re-formation of an ecosystem, in particular an underwater ecosystem.
The subject element (1) has a polygonal shape, in particular it is shaped as a perforated octagon. The body of this element is flat and has a certain thickness. The element shows shaped openings (2) and one of the side of the octagon shows bevels (3) that facilitate the copling of the modular elements.
