Built to halt flooding, erosion and giant waves that would otherwise damage onshore roadways and buildings, seawalls play a crucial role in the protection of coastal communities. With every wave or tidal cycle, the soil is washed away and gaps begin to develop, which ultimately compromises the longevity of these structures. The elements and water’s natural ebb and flow can quickly degrade seawalls and other marine infrastructure. Cracks can form, causing leaks that compel the ground supporting the structure to cave in or wash away. These occurrences can lead to a variety of issues, which include:
- Erosion
- Sinkholes
- Settlement of nearby roadways, walkways, or patios
- Trip-and-fall hazards
- Improper drainage of land-side runoff
- Premature failure
The Process
As a seawall stabilization contractor, EagleLIFT's technicians bolster compromised seawalls by injecting a high-density, structural polyurethane into surrounding base soils through 3/4” metal rods. The high-performance polymer moves quickly throughout the aggregate and expands. This works to:
- Fill gaps
- Push out moisture
- Stabilize soils
- Stop settlement
- Seal cracks
- Connect misaligned joints
- Improve soil weight-bearing capabilities
During the seawall stabilization process, EagleLIFT does not excavate soil or replace materials. We plot out multiple injection locations and introduce the polymer with precision. The material fills up the impacted area evenly and cures into a strong, stable, and long-lasting replacement base material in a matter of minutes. Additional characteristics of our polymer include:
- Expands up to 25 times its initial volume
- Unaffected by standing water
- Displaces trapped water
- Not compromised by wet conditions during or after installation
- Not impacted by contamination, microbial corrosion and or high acid levels
