A repair wrap for repairing or strengthening an inanimate object. The repair wrap includes a fabric, where the fabric includes one or more fibers. The repair wrap also includes a hardening material. The fabric is configured to be wrapped around a portion of an inanimate object. Curing the hardening material is configured to form a shell about the portion of the inanimate object.

Provided are articles useful for rapidly and easily stopping leaks of material contained in conduits, such as water pipes under pressure. Articles according to this disclosure include a band, a lock and a lever. The band is wrapped around the conduit or pipe, and the lever is configured to engage with an end of the band and the lock that rides on the band. Manually, pulling the remaining end of the band and then actuating the lever, or vice versa, cinches the band around the outer circumference of the conduit, effectively sealing the conduit wall and preventing the contents of the conduit from leaking into the ambient surroundings. Elements of the invention cooperate to permit easy removal of the articles for re-use.

Disclosed are a pre-tightening force repairing method, a repairing method involving a combination of a pre-tightening force and a clamp, and a repaired pipeline. The repairing method includes: (a) fixing part of a fiber material to a pipeline; (b) applying a pre-tightening force to the fiber material, winding multiple layers of the fiber material around the pipeline under the pre-tightening force; (c) in the state of applying the pre-tightening force, completing the curing of the multi-layer fiber composite material; and (d) mounting a clamp outside a repairing part of the fiber composite material. The magnitude of the pre-tightening force is designed to overcome the situation whereby a fiber composite material layer comes unstuck from the pipeline due to the radial shrinkage of the pipeline caused by a decrease in internal pressure and/or the axial stretching of the pipeline after the pipeline, which is under pressure, is repaired.

Systems and methods for reinforcing physical structures with composite reinforcement systems are disclosed herein. According to aspects of the present disclosure, a composite reinforcement system includes a carrier formed of a plurality of fibers and a blend of at least two reagents impregnated within the carrier. The at least two reagents are chemically configured to react to form a moisture-curable prepolymer. One reagent of the at least two reagents is an isocyanate, and another reagent of the at least two reagents is an aromatic-group-containing polyol.

A repair wrap for repairing or strengthening an item. The repair wrap includes a fabric, where the fabric includes one or more fibers. The repair wrap also includes a film disposed laterally within the fabric. The repair wrap further includes a hardening material disposed in the fabric. The fabric is configured to be wrapped around a portion of an item. Curing the hardening material is configured to form a shell about the portion of the item.

A reinforced pipe and a method of preparing the reinforced pipe are provided. The reinforced pipe has repair area where a wrinkle bend is present in a center section of the repair area. The reinforced pipe comprises a unidirectional fabric circumferentially wrapped around the repair area of the pipe so as to result in multiple layers of the unidirectional fabric around the repair area. The unidirectional fabric is composed of high-performance fibers with at least 90% of the high-performance fibers oriented in the 90° direction, and the unidirectional fabric is wrapped such that the high-performance fibers run in the axial direction. The reinforced pipe further comprises a bidirectional fabric wrapped of over the unidirectional fabric such the at least one layer of bidirectional fabric is wrapped over the unidirectional fabric.

A pipe replacement system and for repairing a pipe. The pipe replacement system includes a wrap wrapped around a pipe outer surface to form a repair sleeve having a first termination section and a second termination section. The first termination enclosure encloses the first termination section to form a first pressure containing connection with the repair sleeve. The first termination enclosure includes a first outer seal disposed around the pipe on a pipe outer surface. The first outer seal is outwardly spaced from the first termination section to annul arly seal on the pipe outer surface. The first termination enclosure further includes a first inner seal disposed around the repair sleeve on a repair sleeve outer surface. The first inner seal is inwardly spaced from the first outer seal to annul arly seal on the repair sleeve outer surface.

A method for sealing a liquid leak in a pipe. The method may include wrapping a circumference of the pipe with a gasket material at a location of the leak to create an annular cavity between the gasket material and the pipe. The method may also include allowing the leaking liquid to exit from the annular cavity. The method may further include securing the gasket material to the pipe. The method may also include injecting an expandable grout into the annular cavity between the pipe and the gasket material. The method may further include allowing the grout to expand upon contact with the leaking liquid to create a seal around the leak. The method may also include adhering a reinforcement material to the gasket material and the pipe to reinforce the gasket material and the pipe at the location of the leak.
