This series of Pix show the simple installation steps
for building a Navy type seawall or bulkhead using Patented Structural
A-PLY® composite tongue and
groove sheet pile sleeves.

Here is a wood Smooth Faced wall that was
eaten by worms and borers. This Smooth Faced wall will be replaced
by a new A-PLY® Navy
wall using replaced piles (shown) and a Smooth Faced return.

A close up view of the new piles and wale
that will be used to construct the A-PLY®
Navy wall. Also shown is the Smooth Faced wood return that will
be replaced with A-PLY®.

This is a unique Navy wall project. Here
the existing wall was replaced using the existing piles and
tie rods. The piles were leaned forward, a new wale installed
and the A-PLY® Navy
wall material installed and attached to the back of the wale.

This is the completed project. This Navy
wall is on an open bay where the wave action is heavy and strong.
There is also “building ice” as you will see in
other views.
|
This is another unique Navy wall project
on a large open bay. Here a small marina/basin was constructed.
|
|
|
This A-PLY®
project also allowed the property owner to have protection from
the heavy wave action caused by the winds and open bay location.
|
Here is a Navy wall with 10 feet of wall
exposure. The deck above is made from a composite-like lumber.

Here is a close-up of the Navy wall showing
the tie rods that go back into the land (through the A-PLY®
sleeved lumber) and attach to dead men.
