Cofferdam Structures

Morris-Shea installs cofferdam structures as temporary watertight enclosures often used in the construction of bridge or tower piers. These structures can be internally braced and/or anchored depending on the project application.

A cofferdam is typically installed under challenging conditions requiring the use of substantial heavy equipment and floating barges. Temporary pipe piles, sheet piles, bracing and other structural support systems are then removed upon a project’s completion.

Cofferdam Project

Morris-Shea installed a temporary sheet pile cofferdam and falsework for the construction of the new Disney World Skyliner Pop-Darr gondola station and constructed a sheet pile bulkhead for use as a work-barge dock.
