    Abstract

    The present invention relates to a new artificial surfing reef construction method, using geosynthetic cementitious composite mat, with a top coating of plasticized gypsum composition. The current invention artificial surfing reef construction method, can be built in surfing lakes, water basins, pools, lagoons, ponds, reservoirs, rivers, streams and bodies of water.

    Claims

    1. A method for constructing an artificial surfing reef comprising: shaping a water basin bottom to form a contoured sloped water basin bottom; laying a plurality of geosynthetic cementitious composite mats over top of the contoured sloped water basin bottom; wherein the plurality of geosynthetic cementitious composite mats overlap creating overlapping seams; applying a coating of plasticized gypsum composition over top of the geo synthetic cementitious composite mats in order to form the artificial surfing reef; and anchoring the geosynthetic cementitious composite mats to the contoured sloped water basin bottom with an anchor, a cable and a round disc by placing the anchor, the cable, and the round disc through the overlapping seams of the geosynthetic cementitious composite mats to secure the mats to the contoured sloped water basin bottom.
