Underwater Deterioration of Concrete Piles
Underwater deterioration of concrete piles has occurred for many years however, recently piles have been observed at sites with various types of deterioration, including complete loss of concrete section, surface cracking extending from the mud line to MLLW and piles with extensive surface softening. These types of deterioration seem to be more common as manufacturing and construction processes have changed. The cause of the deterioration has typically not been diagnosed, thereby leading to inappropriate repair selection. This article will discuss six facilities tested and for each facility include the field condition of the piles; the sampling program for the facility; testing, including petrographic examination, scanning electron microscopy and differential thermal analysis and conclusions.
