NEW REINFORCED CONCRETE SEAWALL PREDICTED TO LAST MORE THAN 150 YEARS

Jan 16, 2018

 

A new reinforced concrete seawall off the Gulf Coast of Florida is predicted to last more than 150 years, thanks to a high density concrete mix enhanced with Migrating Corrosion Inhibitor™ admixture MCI®-2005.

This extremely high structural standard is difficult to achieve in normal circumstances, let alone a corrosive subtropical seaside environment, where the reinforced concrete would be constantly exposed to high-chloride seawater. However, the owner was confident that this high standard could be achieved by using Cortec’s MCI® technology to help extend the service life of the seawall.
