This report brings together from many sources information which is likely to be needed for the successful design and construction of a cofferdam up to 10 metres deep in steel sheet piling.
It points out the need for the inclusion of the requirement for such a cofferdam in the initial project planning so that the site investigation will give the information necessary for its design.
Other sections include general planning of the cofferdam, earth and water pressure calculations, various methods of analysis for the detailed design of the wall and support system, and the construction, maintenance and removal of the cofferdam. Emphasis is given lo the considerable effect that water pressures have on the loading on the cofferdam wall, and various methods are given to establish these pressures, including the use of flow nets.
There are nurmerous checklists, comprehensive references and a bibliography, together with a number of worked examples in an appendix. While computers are used extensively in design offices, an engineer must understand the basic principles of the design, and the report helps to achieve thls understanding.
