Fender tube frameworks are often fed over smaller diameter jetty piles. To seal and enable concreting between the two elements, it is often challenging to use conventional formwork around the curved shape and the challenges of the marine installation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
To give a temporary seal to allow for structural infill with concrete, a fabric \u2018skirt\u2019 fender seal can be used to span between the pile and upper element. This enables an initial concrete plug seal to be poured, and then the remaining mass infill above (permanent works).<\/p>
This process can also be performed underwater, pumping in tremie fashion to give high quality underwater concrete.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
