4Corrosion Control
in Marine Structures

Corrosion control to extend theservice life of reinforced concreteOver time, aggressive environmental influences result in deteriorationand corrosion of reinforcing steel. This compromises the durability andnegatively affects the service life of structures and buildings in a marine
environment. Technologies from Master Builders Solutions are available
to protect concrete, and prevent corrosion of the reinforcing steel in theseharsh environments. Understanding the corrosion process and addressing
the fundamental cause of the deterioration is key to providing a long-termsolution.

MasterBrace

MasterProtect

A system consisting of a marine grade FRP jacket combinedwith a highly flowable epoxy grout provides a long lasting
protective encapsulation of concrete, steel and woodenpiles. The MasterBrace Advanced Pile Encapsulation
System prevents ingress of waterborne chlorides and othercontaminants and reduces the available oxygen at thesurface which effectively provides a reduction in thecorrosion potential in the reinforcing steel and protects steeland wooden elements.

The MasterProtect system offers a complete range ofconcrete protection products, including liquid, surface
applied migrating corrosion-inhibitors, embedded galvanic
anodes, latex and epoxy-modified anti-corrosion coatings
for rebar, as well water repellents, protective coatings. TheMaster Builders Solutions experts connect with customers
to identify the best products to use for extending concrete
life, and restoring original aesthetics and design function.

Structural Strengthening & Crack Repair
in Marine Structures

Structural strengthening and crack repair
to extend structures' service life
With the corrosion of reinforcement and the subsequent reduction in crosssection, the service load capacity of a structure is severely affected. In newconstruction projects, the demands to build complex marine structures
quickly can lead to inadequacies in curing or concrete mix design causing
cracking or poor placement of the reinforcement. Technologies fromMaster Builders Solutions are available to repair and strengthen concrete inboth new construction and refurbishment projects.

Solutions for
Crack repairStructural strengthening

MasterInject

MasterBrace

Where the structural integrity of concrete has been
compromised, epoxy adhesives, injection resins and bonding
agents fill and seal cracks and voids that have occurred fromcorrosion or damage during seismic activity and physicalimpact. The epoxy- and polyurethane-based MasterInject
products are easily injected into the crack to penetrate thestructure, filling the cracks to re-establish the load bearing
capacity and structural integrity. Various formulations meet
specific performance criteria.

The MasterBrace composite strengthening system is aproven method to restore capacity of concrete structure loss
due to deterioration, upgrade load bearing capacities,
correct design deficits, and for seismic retrofit. This
innovative fiber-reinforced polymer composite system is
supported by Master Builders Solutions experts
who provide specification and design
assistance, contractor training and on-site testing.
