Using Cofferdams for Bridge Pier Construction Work

Cofferdams are enclosures built within a body of water that allow workers to pump water out of a specific area. When used in bridge construction and repair applications, cofferdams create a dry location beneath the surface to work on underwater sections of the structure. Crews can perform their tasks efficiently with no concerns about leakage or penetration.

Benefits of Cofferdams for Bridge Pier Construction Projects

Implementing cofferdams provides several advantages when working on bridge piers:

  • Provides a reliable, cost-effective and eco-friendly dewatering solution
  • Creates a safe work environment to protect workers throughout the project
  • Offers a portable water removal option that crews can install and disassemble quickly and efficiently
  • Available for rent on a project-by-project basis, preventing the need for a long-term investment
  • Saves time and labor and eliminates hauling and storage issues because the water required to fill cofferdams is already on-site
