Project Details
The SeaShield 500™ System was used as part of a refurbishment project by Argyll and Bute Council on Dunoon’s historic Victorian era wooden pier.
The pier is category A Listed, so any refurbishment work required Capita’s Structural and Conservation Engineering Team to work closely with the client and Historic Scotland to ensure that the work did not compromise the historical significance of the structure.
SeaShield 500 System used in this project consists of specially constructed SeaShield FRP Jackets™ which were applied in areas above and below water and fixed in position on the piles. SeaShield 550 Epoxy Grout™ was then poured into the pile jacket.
