or soil out of the excavation in which a bridge pier or other structure is built. When construction must take place below the water level, a cofferdam is built to give workers a dry work environment. Sheet piling is driven around the work site, seal concrete is
The Ruhlin Company was contracted to manage the design and construction of the cofferdam. Analysis was performed for various load cases ranging from normal pool elevations to flood conditions. Engineering solutions included rock anchors to mitigate poor rock strengths, support of earth structures, weighted berm,
The execution of foundations in maritime environments often involves important temporary works, in order to provide a safe workplace, comply with environmental requirements and achieve high quality standards. This paper presents the design, construction and installation of the steel cofferdams used for the execution of

overlain by water, as in a river or lake bottom, cellular cofferdams are generally used to' provide a water barrier. This type of structure is widely used to provide a dry work area where dams are constructed in rivers, and for waterfront construction. ' The cellular structure shown in Fig. 14.2 is economical since stability is
