Removal Procedure

When removal takes place in moving water, the water must first be equalized on both sides of the Aqua Barrier. Both ends of the barrier must have attached pipes controlled by hydraulic equipment arm (i.e. track hoe or crane).

Moving Water Installation

Installation made easy...

The pipe loops allow for easy maneuvering during the installation. Use a spreader bar technique along with a shoreline anchor during installations where moving water is present.

Standing Water Installation

Installation made easy...

When the barriers are installed in static water no shoreline anchor is necessary. The barriers are buoyant and will float on the surface of the water.

The crew can simply unroll the cofferdam at the desired location.
