2. PileMedic™ is a patent-pending recently developed innovative product by QuakeWrap, Inc.
president, Professor Mo Ehsani for repair, strengthening and encapsulation of steel, concrete and
wood or timber piles.
Applications include bridges, buildings, industrial plants, utility poles, piers, underwater piles,
timber piles used in railroad bridges, to name a few.
PILEMEDIC™
THE PERMANENT SOLUTION FOR PILE RESTORATION
1. Corrosion
Damaged
2. Cut
PileMedic™ to
desired size
and apply
epoxy
3. Wrap
PileMedic™
around column
to create a shell
of any shape
4. Use rachet
straps to
temporarily
hold the shell’s
shape
5. Fill annular
space with
non-shrink
grout or low
velocity resin
6. Remove
ratchet straps
and paint
jacket (if
desired)
• The only product approved by FEMA and the US
Army Corps of Engineers
• 3-4 times stronger than steel
• Fastest repair and strengthening system with no
traffic control
• Increase axial capacity beyond original strength of
column
• No weak seams along height offers uniform
confining pressure (360°)
• Provides structural confinement
• No costly divers for underwater repair
• Does not corrode
• No metallic parts
• Grout or resin can be pressurized to penetrate all
cracks and crevices
• Available in carbon or glass
• Works well on concrete, steel and wood or timber
piles and columns
• One size fits all piles (no delays for customized
jackets)
360° OF CONFINING PRESSURE
PILEMEDIC ADVANTAGES:
PileMedic™ is the only pile jacket system on the
market that provides all round (360 degree) confining
pressure. This significantly increases the strength of
the pile. The strength of a typical 4,000psi concrete
pile will be raised to over 6,000psi once it is wrapped
with PileMedic™

• Strengthening Existing Pipelines
APPLICATIONS:
StifPipe® is the latest patent-pending technology developed
by QuakeWrap, INC. President, Professor Mo Ehsani for repair of
deteriorate pipes, culverts and tunnels. This revolutionary product
is a customized per-manufactured Carbon FRP pipe that can be
delivered to the job site in any length for quick final assembly
inside the pipe. StifPipe® can cut pipeline and tunnel repair costs
to a fraction of that by conventional materials and techniques.
• Can be made of any size
• Can be made to any shape
• Manufactured off-site to reduce on-site repair time
• Maximises capacity by fitting tightly against host
pipe
• Pipe can be tested for strength before installation
• Lower cost than other FRP liners
STIFPIPE ADVANTAGES:

4. Layers of carbon or glass fabric saturated with epoxy resin
are applied inside the pipe to create a pressure vessel that
can resist all or part of the internal pressure of the pipe.
Suitable for both spot repairs and for repair of long pipeline
segments. Provides watertight pipe rehabilitation for high
pressure and pravity pipelines.
