Two Ways to Repair & Reinforce
Those in need of steel pile repair have two options: CarboShield and CarboSleeve. CarboSleeve is a high-strength, internal reinforcement and strengthening system for hollow steel piles and other large hollow structural columns.
Solid Steel Pile Repair
The CarboShield system addresses corrosion and damage to steel marine piles to make them stronger than new
Hollow Steel Pile Repair
The CarboSleeve composite system uses carbon and glass FRP to reinforce hollow steel marine piles
Hollow Steel Pile Repair
CarboSleeve allows for installation completely above water, reducing time, risk and cost. After pressure washing the pile’s internal surface, the CarboSleeve is inserted through a small hole at the top of the pile. Special epoxy grout is then pumped in, filling the internal space from the bottom up. The fibers act as a tension element, and the grout as a compression element for a stronger, corrosion-proof pile.
Don’t Just Repair Piles. Strengthen Them.
In tests at the University of Miami’s IAS-accredited lab, CarboShield-treated piles were 35 times stronger than unretrofitted piles. What’s more, they’re far tougher than fiberglass solutions—and can withstand decades of currents, pressure and extreme temperatures.
