PILE DETERIORATION
There are many causes for
9 © 2015 Five Star Marine, Inc.
The challenging marine environment, weathering, and poor construction practice leads to concrete failure:
1) Corrosion of steel and the resulting expansive forces
2) Freeze-thaw deterioration
3) Sulfate attack
4) Alkali-silica reaction
5) Impact damage
CONCRETE Pile Deterioration
10 © 2015 Five Star Marine, Inc.
Shipworms are not worms at all, but rather a group of unusual saltwater clams with very small shells, notorious for boring into wooden structures that are in sea water.
WOOD Pile Deterioration
11 © 2015 Five Star Marine, Inc.
Three elements are
required for corrosion
to exist:
1. A protected metal
2. A corroded metal
3. A current-conducting
medium between the
two (electrolyte).

• Five Star Marine®
PileCap™ Marine Pile
Restoration Systems are
capable of completely
restoring a damaged pile
to 100% structural load
bearing integrity.
• All PileCap™ Systems are
designed with the client’s
individual needs in mind with
many applications requiring
no downtime or interruption
to the normal business
activity.
PileCap™ Structural Repair Systems

PileCap™ Steel System
Designed to repair severely corroded or breached steel piling. The
structural jacket becomes a permanent form for strength and durability
by bearing the pile’s intended load while eliminating corrosion and
preventing further damage to the pile.

PileCap™ Concrete System
A 100% structural jacket designed to repair severely spalled and damaged sections
back to full structural integrity. These structural jackets can also be injected with Five
Star Marine® epoxy or cementitious Grouts to fill voids and damaged areas. Existing
steel, reinforcing mesh, or rebar rods remain internal and require minimal preparation
and thus less time and hardware for installation.

PileCap™ HP-Pile System
Fully restore the load bearing integrity to an existing HP-Pile by
removing the damaged portion and replacing it with a new portion.
The new section of piling is connected to the existing.

PileCap™ Timber System
Extends the life of existing wood piles by removing a portion of damaged or
deteriorated piling and installing new sections without adding additional
weight or causing further stress to the wood pile. The wood piling is
brought back to 100% structural integrity.
