ABSTRACT:
A high-energy-absorbing prestressed concrete fender pile, and fendering sem using a plurality of such piles, constructed from high-strength concrete prestressed with longitudinal tensioned strands only partially prestressed such that the longitudinal strands remian elastic to provide high remaining material strength for absorbing high energy impact prior to reaching the yield strength of the strands; the longitudinal tensioned strands are wrapped with an outer spiral wire reinforcement, and the longitudinal strands are preferably stressed to remain elastic until the concrete reches a capacity of 0.003 inch/inch compression strain.
