Groundwater Cutoff Wall

  • Allows large, shallow excavations to be accomplished in the "dry" with no dewatering.

  • Freeze pipes are installed nearly horizontal using directional drilling methods.

  • Completely seals the site from groundwater.

  • Uplift is controlled by freezing deeper than the planned excavation.

  • Adapts to sites of variable size and shape with lengths up to 1,000 feet.

  • Can also be used to cut off groundwater beneath existing structures.

  • Cost effective to depths of 60 feet or more.
