03 - “Waterblocking” Solution For Outfall Pipe Project
Known for our ability to provide practical solutions to our clients, Titan was the supplier of choice for a water treatment plant outfall pipe installation project on the bank of the Winnipeg River. To install this outfall pipe the contractor needed to hold back river water and blast local bedrock on the riverbank. A product in our Water Control line called WaterBloc proved to be the ideal solution for this application. WaterBloc is a deployable tube-like product made of industrial grade PVC that is water-inflated using the water you are working against. Once inflated it quickly transforms into a dike or cofferdam to hold back water. Engineered for stability, WaterBloc’s safety factor against rolling or sliding is more than 10 times greater than comparable single-chambered products.
A total of 13 WaterBloc tubes of varying lengths were deployed for this project allowing for successful installation of the outfall pipe.
