VA DOT Fender Rehabilitation Project - Fiberglass Pipe Piles

"Not only did Creative Supply a quality product at a fair price, they stood behind us through the entire project. The engineering team at CPI made my life easier and saved us money in the process."

Creative Pultrusions, Inc. (CPI) teamed with Crofton Industries to supply 16" diameter Fiberglass Pipe Piles for the construction of a bridge pier fender system for Virginia DOT. The project involved value engineering the Fiberglass Pipe Piles into the project. The value engineering process required a full Pile Dynamic Analysis (PDA), full section testing and the verification of material properties and energy absorption capabilities of the Pultruded FRP SUPERPILE. The 116 piles were utilized to replace a deteriorated wood fender system that had succumbed to the harsh marine environment.
