MOVABLE COFFERDAM ENABLES "IN THE DRY" COATING OF SHEET PILING

TO PREVENT STEEL SHEET PILING FROM DETERIORATING AND CORRODING, A MOVABLE COFFERDAM HAS BEEN DEVELOPED THAT CAN BE FITTED TO THE IRREGUALR SURFACE OF THE STEEL SHEET PILING. ONCE IN PLACE, WATER IS PUMPED OUT OF THE COFFERDAM AND A WORKMAN CAN DRY-SANDBLAST THE PILING SURFACE AND THE PAINTER CAN APPLY PROTECTIVE COATINGS AS REQUIRED.
