SRRS2 a Success at Cal State Fullerton Part 3 of 3 -- Ace Restoration - Pearl Harbor Navy Wharf.

Scott Lansberg from Ace Restoration presented his paper on "Upgrade for Naval Wharf Bravo 25, Pearl Harbor." This is a 50 year old wharf and was strengthened in the third demonstration of composites upgrading technology for Navy piers.

The Naval Facilities Engineering Services Center in Port Hueneme worked with the local office in Pearl Harbor to design and specify the repairs and strengthening. The major effort was the repair of reinforced concrete using polymer mortar or concrete and added cathodic protection systems, neither using composites. Impressed current is us

    • ABSTRACT As a part of wood-plastic composite (WPC) material development, this research evaluated the resistance of WPC formulations to fungal decay and biocide leaching. In laboratory tests using small WPC samples exposed directly to brown-rot and white-rot fungi, there were no weight losses caused by decay in most formulations. Formulations ......

    • For maintenance and repair of marine structures, concrete jackets, sleeves, and cap extensions are often used to provide corrosion protection for steel elements. These protective components normally extend from below the mean low water (MLW) elevation to above the splash zone and are only about 150 to 300 mm (6 ......

  • Long-term effectiveness of cathodic protection systems on highway structures Publication No. FHWA-RD-01-096.
    • Based on extensive study, FHWA researchers conclude that cathodic protection--the technology used to mitigate corrosion of metals embedded in concrete--is the only rehabilitation technique that has proven to stop corrosion in salt-contaminated bridge decks regardless of the chloride content of the concrete. This technology is based on applying an external ......

    • It's a fact: Reinforced concrete structures installed in saltwater are at high risk for the damaging effects of rebar corrosion. Cathodic protection has long been known as one effective way to address the problem, but fears of high cost and the perceived complexities of its design and installation have limited ......
