Groundwater Cutoff Wall

  • Circular-shape frozen soil wall provides very strong shoring without internal bracing.

  • Has been used on hundreds of shafts worldwide to depths of 800 feet.

  • Completely cuts off ground water to eliminate dewatering.

  • Generally costs less than other deep shaft methods (secant concrete piles, jet grouting, etc.).

  • A frozen soil seal can be created at sites where no natural groundwater cutoff is present.

  • May be used in nearly all soil and groundwater conditions.

  • Designed to resist uplift without expensive tie-downs.
