Nasa Launch Pad 39B
On NASA’s launchpad 39B, Consel stabilized the soils underneath of the pad via chemical grouting with Master Builders MP325 sodium silicate to a depth of 10 feet. Consel also filled a void under the launch pad with a non-shrink cementitious grout to stabilize the launchpad making it ready for the larger equipment required for the Artemis Rocket to launch. Consel finished the restoration project with injections throughout the structure to stop water intrusion in the back up battery room.
Everglades City Hall
Everglades City Hall is a historical structure that was built in 1928. The wooden piles that were driven during the construction of the building had rotted away to broomstick size in some cases, and the structure had sustained major damage by Hurricane Wilma. Consel started by installing helical piles around the exterior of the building to lift and stabilize the existing foundation. After the existing foundation was stabilized, Consel cut holes throughout the flooring and installed grouted micro piles to support the interior footings of the structure. Consel also poured new footings to encompass the installed micro piles for total support of the existing structure, restoring the historic building to its former glory.
Brightline High Speed Railway SR 528 Fly Under Tunnel
Consel stopped water intrusion through the four-foot slab by injecting Master Builders MP368 polyurea silicate. This material sets up in about 2 1/2 minutes and reaches 5,000 PSI structural strength within 24 hours. The polyurea silicate was selected over standard epoxy because of its ability to set in a wet environment. Consel also injected the walls with Master Builders MP300, a flexible acrylic, mixed 1:1 with a reinforcing agent, stopping all water intrusion and thus protecting the reinforcing steel.
