Abstract

A hardening agent deployment device comprising: a main malleable pouch having at least two layers of water permeable material having a planar configuration and a pore size capable of retaining a hardening agent, the main malleable pouch formed by a first outer layer of water permeable material having the planar configuration and the pore size capable of retaining the hardening agent, and a second outer layer of water permeable material having the planar configuration and having the pore size capable of retaining the hardening agent, wherein the first outer layer of water permeable material and the second outer layer of water permeable material are affixed to each other forming the main malleable pouch; a structural support component enclosed within the main malleable pouch; and the hardening agent enclosed within the main malleable pouch, wherein the hardening agent hardens when coming in contact with water.
