THE SCOPE OF WORK FOR THIS PROJECT CONSISTS OF THE IN-PLACE STRUCTURAL REPAIR OF TIMBER VERTICAL
AND BATTER PILES SUPPORTING THE SUBSTRUCTURE OF BUILDING 5 PIER THAT ARE FOUND TO HAVE SUBSTANTIAL
DECAY AND IN NEED OF IMMEDIATE REPAIR. THE GOAL OF THE REPAIRS IS TO EXTEND THE SERVICE LIFE OF THE
PILE BEING REPAIRED BY APPROXIMATELY 50 YEARS.
THE REPAIR WORK FOR THESE PILES INCLUDES THE INSTALLATION OF A PERMANENT OUTER JACKET, MADE FROM
HIGH STRENGTH FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMER (FRP) COMPOSITE AND FILLING THE ANNULAR SPACE BETWEEN THE
PILE AND THE PERMANENT JACKET WITH A MULTI-PURPOSE MARINE EPOXY GROUT AND REINFORCEMENT AS
REQUIRED. THE REPAIRS APPLY OVER THE FULL LENGTH OF THE VERTICAL AND BATTER PILES.
REPAIRS ARE LIMITED TO SUBSTANTIALLY DECAYED TIMBER PILES AND NO OTHER STRUCTURAL FRAMING
