Top Tips For Construction Water Diversion

While a dry worksite is essential for many construction and repair projects, there are some cases where it is not feasible to completely cut off the water flow. Sometimes, a project requires you to completely block off the water for the duration of your project, while others need a diversion to keep the water flowing smoothly while you work. [bctt tweet=”Having the proper tools and plans will help your construction water diversion project be completed in a safe and timely manner.” via=”no”] Here are some helpful tips for successful water diversion on your next project.

Diverting Water for Construction Projects

Often, construction projects require work done across streams, rivers, or similar small bodies of water. Since these bodies of water cannot be fully blocked, water must be diverted to maintain a healthy flow. Some typical projects requiring water diversion are:

About Water Diversion

Sometimes a diversion is necessary for construction to ensure an isolated, dry project area. In some cases, water is temporarily rerouted in order to prevent or minimize contamination of clean surface waters. Water diversion also provides an effective method of sediment control. With water diversion, work zone sediment is prevented from entering the body of water, which is especially crucial when dewatering stormwater areas.

Best Method for Water Diversion

Working in water is one of the most complex construction scenarios imaginable, and an Aqua-Barrier® Cofferdam should be an essential component of your water diversion project. Easily deployed and completely portable, Aqua-Barrier® can be used in a variety of configurations to divert water, creating a dry work environment.

Construction Projects & Water Diversion

Inflatable bladder dams, like the Aqua-Barrier®, have quickly become the leading method for water diversion and dewatering in construction. They are easy to deploy, effective, and environmentally friendly. Consider investing in a water-inflated bladder dam for your future dewatering and diversion projects.
