Commercial Marine Industry Marine Composites First year customers include the Navy, the ports of Los Angeles and New York, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Coast Guard. Seaward also produces a square cross section, suitable for use as dock structural members. Future applications include railroad ties and telephone poles.

The rebars are produced with a urethane-modified vinyl ester resin from Shell. These products are designed to replace steel rebar that traditionally is coated with epoxy to prevent corrosion. The composite rebar is lighter than steel, Figure 1-20 C - B A R C o m- and has a thermal expansion coefficient similar to posite Reinforcing Rod [Mar- Composite Marine Piling modernization budget of $350 million annually. [1-21] as an alternative to preventing steel corrosion in waterfront reinforced The Navy is studying the use of FRP concrete structures. The Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) has constructed a 150 ft. reinforced concrete pier in Port Hueneme, CA. This pier will be used as a test bed for advanced waterfront technologies, in particular for the evaluation of composites in waterfront applications. This is a joint project in coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, and the Composites Institute.
