FIELD: hydraulic engineering, building of shore-protecting installations to prevent washout of canals, river banks and re-formation of river beds for control over them. SUBSTANCE: deepened bankprotecting structure has cross-section of T-shape comprising wall oriented downwards and worked deeper into ground. Reinforcement net is flexibly attached to wall and is separated from wall by continuous structural-deformation joint of flange. Upper mark on flange matches mark of surface of river or canal bed. Continuous reinforcing net is placed in flange, in horizontal plane. Reinforced cage is positioned in wall in vertical plane. Flexible apron divided by structural-deformation joints into individual interconnected blocks is attached to front part of structure.
