Steel Tank Repair
HJ3’s carbon fiber composite systems can be used to repair
large steel tanks used for storage or processing
of aggressive chemicals. These repairs are completed
without the need for welding. HJ3's high strength composite
systems are capable of restoring the tensile strength
of corroded and deteriorating steel tank walls suffering
from exposure to aggressive acidic or alkaline chemicals. HJ3
composite systems also provide chemical protection and
have been tested to withstand chemicals ranging from
pH 1 to pH 13 in over 20,000 hours of continuous exposure.

Steel Riser Pipe Repair
Corrosion of steel reduces pipe strength and
service life. Normally, owners are forced to replace
the damaged pipe, requiring extensive downtime, the use
of heavy equipment and excavation.
HJ3 composites can structurally repair the damaged
pipe. Installed internally or externally, HJ3 composite
repair systems return the pipe to its original design
strength without costly downtime, heavy equipment or
excavation. (back to top)
PCCP
Large
diameter Pre-stressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe is used to
transfer pressurized water to cooling towers. Over
time, the pre-stressing wires used to contain internal
pipe pressures corrode leaving the PCCP susceptible to
blow-out. HJ3’s carbon fiber composite systems
can be installed on the internal pipe wall of the PCCP
to create hoop strengthening to resist internal pipe pressures. These
repairs are made without having to excavate and replace
the pipe creating considerable cost savings. (back

Industrial Chimney Stacks
HJ3’s high strength composite materials are excellent
repair systems for confining and strengthening large industrial
chimney stacks. Traditional steel banding, currently
used to repair stacks, is cumbersome and expensive to install. Additionally,
these systems do not offer full confinement of the structure
allowing falling debris. HJ3 high strength composites
can be designed to overcome seismic loads or deterioration
of the stack. (back to top)
