Sandy Bay Seawall
Tasmania,
Australia
An existing seawall had become delapidated due to decades of constant, severe exposure to wind, tides and wave action. Xypex Admix was chosen for concrete protection against aggressive chloride attack. Xypex was favoured over other systems due to the ease of application, benefits to the host concrete, longer service life and cost.

The seawall was rebuilt with the use of Xypex admixture in the concrete elements.
