New seawalls are coming to help protect our cities and marine life! 🌱πŸ¦ͺ

FIU researchers are testing textured, modular seawalls made with BIOCAP tile, designed to reduce wave energy and create homes for marine life like oysters, barnacles, and sponges 🦠🌊.

These innovative seawalls are set to be installed in spring 2025 as part of a two-year pilot project πŸ—“οΈ, and could change the way we think about coastal protection πŸŒŽπŸ’‘.

Excited to see how science and design come together to protect our coastlines! πŸ™Œ

The IBT/ABC-UTC team has developed a groundbreaking way to apply Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC). Helping buildings withstand the toughest conditions, UHPC offers exceptional strength and durability, making it possible to retrofit, rather than rebuild, structures like bridges and buildings.

By developing a unique way of applying UHPC, FIU helps ensure our communities remain safe & sustainable for decades to come. 🌍πŸ’ͺ πŸ”¨πŸŒ±

🌊 Check out how South Florida is protecting our coastlines, one innovation at a time! 🌱✨ Wahoo Bay Park – located in Pompano Beach Broward County - is just ONE example of how new & are being used to strengthen our communities!
DID YOU KNOW? Coastal communities, like ours, depend on natural barriers, such as mangroves and coral reefs, to help protect the shoreline and limit the impacts of flooding caused by intense storms and seasonal hurricanes. The cost-effective, environmentally friendly concrete SEAHIVEβ„’ structures pictured were installed within Wahoo Bay to act as a shoreline protection system. These honey-comb structures disperse wave energy helping limit flooding and erosion. πŸοΈπŸ”¬
By merging technology and nature, we’re shaping a more resilient future for our coasts Who’s ready to β€œdive” into the next wave of sustainability? 🌊🌿
