Precast Concrete Sea Wall Saver
Overview
The Sea Wall Saver mitigates the effects of climate change by extending the height of sea walls with a precast concrete capping system.
Each Engineered sea wall system is custom designed for a 100-year lifespan and installed on top of the existing sea wall. There is no need to demolish the existing sea wall and rebuild, saving time and money.
Designs are available for public, commercial, and private sea walls.
