Restorasyon koray istorikman te itilize estrikti modifye pou rebati oswa estabilize fondasyon resif koray apre gwo domaj ki te koze pa baz bato, min, oswa lapèch eksplozyon. Pwojè sa yo souvan itilize materyèl atifisyèl (eg, blòk kalkè, pil wòch, siman Series, asye, bwa, ak kawotchou) ki echwe pou yo rekrite koray bilding Reef sou estrikti. Pwojè modèn adisyoni substra Reef jodi a itilize plis materyèl natirèl, epi chèche amelyore sante ekolojik ak sèvis ekosistèm pou moun, tankou pwoteksyon bò lanmè. Nan kèk zòn, pouvwa restorasyon nan anviwònman fizik la dwe mande anvan restorasyon byolojik nan koray la ak kominote pwason ka rive.

Coral restoration historically used engineered structures to rebuild or stabilize coral reef framework after major damage caused by ship groundings, mining, or blast fishing. These projects often utilized manmade materials (e.g., limestone blocks, rock piles, molded cement, steel, wood, and tires) that failed to recruit reef-building corals onto structures. Modern reef substrate addition projects today use more natural materials, and seek to enhance both ecological health and ecosystem services to people, like coastal protection. In some areas, restoration of the physical environment may be required before biological restoration of the coral and fish communities can occur.
