Our Clients Say
“Fixing the tunnel from the inside with QuakeWrap not only saves us money but is minimally invasive to our busy campus. We think it’s a green solution, too…”
-Peter Dourlein, Asisst. Vice President for Planning and Construction, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona
FRP Construction entered the tunnel and successfully installed the FRP product per QuakeWrap’s design to restore the strength of the weakened area of the tunnel as well as a permanent water cutoff solution. QuakeWrap personnel were quick, efficient, and communicative, during the entire process and completed the repair in a timely manner. We are very pleased with the end result and their performance.”
– Joshua Zimmerman, Project Engineer, Brierley Associates, Minneapolis, Minnesota.
“Our client American Battle Monuments Commission and our firm are very pleased with the entire QuakeWrap experience. The product itself is an excellent way to rejuvenate aging structures, and the company was with us every step of the way. As a lead design professional, I will not hesitate to specify QuakeWrap again in the future.”
-Gary Kaye, President, Gary Kaye Design, Phoenix, Arizona
“QuakeWrap provided an innovative, multi-purpose FRP liner design that not only targeted the leak problems, but also provided additional structural strengthening to account for steel reinforcement loss due to future corrosion damage, as well as an efficient crack control system, which increased the life cycle of the penstock.”
