Jumbo Bags Are Very Suitable For Building Cofferdams

Bulk bags (also called jumbo bags) have been shown to be effective for storing and transporting various products and materials, but new uses for these multifunctional woven polypropylene bags have recently emerged. The most commonly used method for moisture resistance is to stack polypropylene sandbags, but it has recently been discovered that container bag filling is very useful for emergency water control and construction of cofferdams.

 

Let's study why Jumbo Bags are very suitable for building cofferdams, and some best practices for using FIBC to build cofferdams.

 

Use jumbo bags to build a cofferdam

Cofferdams are drained waterproof enclosures to allow construction work to be carried out below the waterline, such as when building bridges or repairing ships. Bulk bags are very suitable for building cofferdams because they:

 

  • When temporary dams are no longer needed, they can be quickly deployed and quickly removed.

  • Can be built into any configuration.

  • It can be built to adapt to different heights, variable river bed depths and extremely irregular river beds.

When building a cofferdam using bulk bags, you will need some additional supplies to effectively keep the area dry. A polyethylene tarp is required to prevent water from penetrating between the bags and to further seal the area. You also need a bagging machine. The FIBC used to build temporary dams can be filled with clean gravel or sand, with a capacity of up to 95%. Large isolation bags and traditional sandbags are also common when constructing cofferdams. Use sandbags to place smaller areas where larger bags may not fit.
