construction site water Applications

All construction affects groundwater and a water management plan will be required. From deforestation to urbanisation, from holes to heaps and dams to drains, they all have an affect on the groundwater. Deforestation causes an increase in the rate of run off of rainwater resulting in lower percolation of precipitation into the soil and a consequent increase in soil erosion leading to slope instability, hence land and mud slides. The increased rate of run off can cause small streams and large rivers to rise and...

Envirotac line of polymers are commonly used on construction sites to control dust and reduce water. When an area has been mass graded contractors will use Envirotac to treat the disturbed areas as opposed to constantly watering them. One application of an Envirotac will last years and cost nearly one penny per square foot.

Subsurface investigations prior to reconnaissance and pre construction stages are often met with difficult site conditions particularly over rivers and water bodies. Due to site constraints, geo-technical methods are not suitable in such cases. Therefore

The harder the conditions are, the greater the Watermaster`s advantages are. Civil engineering jobs in water are typical for Watermaster Classic. Watermaster is ideal when e.g. embedding cables and pipes in the bottom and it can also do other kinds of maintenance work effectively. The machine moves to the site with its own propulsion system and remote controlled spuds give proper anchorage for steady and efficient piling, excavating work as well as for cable mounting.

MB simplifies the working process, eliminating costs and reducing timing for the materials disposal and procurement process. By using MB`s range for digs, channelling, construction and maintenance of sewage, water and gas pipelines, the costs of loading and transporting materials to the landfill are eliminated completely, with significant savings in terms of money and time. Everything becomes simpler and less costly with the use of MB, which consent to reduce or even eliminate costs and time required for disposal...

Monitoring VOCs in porewater in the unsaturated zone is now possible. Sorbisense regularly offers new options for using the patented Sorbicell, which is used to monitor surface water, wastewater and groundwater. The latest is almost as “ground-breaking” as the SorbiCell itself. Until now it has been difficult, if not impossible, to directly monitor for volatile substances in pore water in the unsaturated zone. But the environmental consultancy firm Ejlskov A/S in Aarhus combined the use of Sorbisense sampling...

Dewatering equipment is used to lower the groundwater table temporarily on a controlled depth. This method is widely used in the USA and Europe on constructions sites with a high water table where a foundation or a basement of a new building has to be build, sewage and waterlines has to be installed. In Europe horizontal dewatering is used on nearly all pipeline project where gas and oil pipelines have to be installed underground. With horizontal dewatering ,in contrary to (vertical) well-pointing the drain is...

Coastal erosion is the wearing away of land or the removal of beach or dune sediments by wave action, tidal currents, wave currents, or drainage. Removing sand and other materials from beaches and dunes due to tidal storm surges and construction purposes causes massive beach erosion damages and land loss of seashores, thus destroying the natural heritage of the coast and reducing the vibrancy of the tourism industry. Uprooting vegetation from coastal areas destabilises beaches and clearing sites inland results in...

Vacuum excavation is fast becoming a best practice in the field of construction and site excavation. Why? Because it uses jets of air (air excavation) or water (hydro excavation) to loosen soil, instead of a heavy metal claw. After loosening, the soil is pulled out of the ground through an air vacuum hose to a debris tank for later disposal or back-filling. Using non-destructive technology can quickly, safely and economically excavate in areas inaccessible to conventional digging equipment like backhoes and...
