Kings Bay E.H. Wharf 1 Repairs & Naval Infrastructure Restoration
PROJECT DETAILS
Kings Bay E.H. Wharf 1 Repairs demonstrates Precon Marine’s expertise in naval waterfront infrastructure restoration, specialized marine construction, and structural rehabilitation. Through concrete repairs, cathodic protection, steel pile repairs, and commercial diving services, our experienced team helped support the structural integrity and long-term performance of critical naval infrastructure.
This project involved extensive repairs and improvements to the Explosive Handling Wharf (EHW1) at SUBASE Kings Bay. Key components of the scope included approximately 5,420 cubic yards of reinforced concrete repairs on piles, pile caps, bull rails, beams, under-deck areas, and capstan foundations. A metalizing and cathodic protection system was installed on reinforced concrete pile caps, covering approximately 1,887 square feet of wharf concrete pile cap and 140 square feet of concrete piles. Anodes were installed and repairs were made to the bonding harness system on approximately 667 steel piles.
Additionally, the fender wraps on 207 steel piles (30″ and 24″) were cleaned, coated, and replaced using Denso wraps. The driver’s float was replaced, and repairs were made to guide piles, along with miscellaneous repairs to mooring hardware, fender piles, and utility structures. Divers were utilized for pressure washing, chipping, and cleaning loose concrete, and they installed Cathodic Protection Jackets for approximately 667 concrete piles. Various electrical repairs were conducted, including the replacement of power cable brackets, and additional incidental work was performed as required. Throughout the project, strict adherence to maritime safety requirements was maintained.
