Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed to transfer forces on a damaged pile to the lower part of the pile, bypassing the damaged area. Rings of various materials are tightly wrapped around the pile or clamps are attached to the pile, above and below the damaged area, causing calculated friction between the pile and the rings and/or clamps. Subsequently the damaged area and the rings and/or clamps are encased in a curable substance, such as concrete. After curing, the rings and/or clamps above the damaged area will receive the stresses on the pile through the friction with the pile and will transfer them to the concrete which in turn will transfer the stresses to the lower part of the pile through the lower rings and/or clamps and their friction with the lower part of the pile. Nothing is welded to the pile and the pile is not altered in any way.
