Factors That Affect Marine Concrete Structures

Marine environments pose unique challenges for concrete structures. Constant exposure to saltwater and the weather, coupled with potentially heavy loads, can cause concrete to degrade.

Factors that affect marine concrete structures include:

  • Abrasion / scour: The flow of water, traffic, and wind can create wear on marine concrete surfaces 
  • Corrosion: Saltwater contributes to the deterioration of minerals in concrete and can lead to chipping, flaking, and spalling 
  • Impacts: Repeated impacts from marine vessels compromise the structural integrity of marine structures
  • Loads: Heavy loads from equipment put stress on structural members
  • Marine life: Algae growth and other marine life can compromise the structural integrity of concrete in marine environments
  • Change of use application

Our Concrete Pier Repair Services

The Epoxy Design team offers complete dock and pier concrete repair services to counteract these forces. Depending on the local conditions, uses of the structures, and damage present, we provide:

  • Crack repair: We use epoxy and urethane crack injection, patching, and sealing to address cracks
  • Shotcrete to repair large areas of distressed concrete below deck
  • Pier pile repair jackets infilled with epoxy or cementitious grout
  • Corrosion mitigation: Embedded galvanic cathodic protection systems protect against corrosion
  • Structural reinforcement: Incorporating engineered design, using CFRP  
  • Splash zone protection: Marine-grade coatings, sealants, and waterproofing protect docks, piers, and wharfs from abrasion and wear
