The system is comprised of a custom-made fiberglass jacket that provides a permanent protective form-work which is filled with water-insensitive epoxy grout to protect damaged piles.
The SeaShield 500 Jacket™ is provided with a vertical tongue and groove closure and is supplied to a project specific thickness. Non-corrosive standoffs can be supplied to maintain the correct spacing of the jacket around the pile. This ensures the correct thickness of SeaShield 550 Epoxy Grout™ in the completed system. This grout can displace existing water and can be easily pumped, tremied or poured into the SeaShield 500 jacket even while it is submerged in water. By eliminating the need to dewater the site or build cofferdams, the SeaShield 500 System drastically reduces the overall expense and loss-of-use cost, as the structure can generally remain in service while the repair is executed.
