Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Looking NNE from just above 600-foot lock at McAlpine Locks.

Barge with sheet piling and cofferdam cell template. . The template, consisting of two connected rings, is used as a form for the construction of the cylindrical cells which make up the cofferdam. If necessary, the riverbed is prepared to provide a level surface, then the template is lowered into place and secured. Interlocking sheetpiles are driven into the riverbed around the template, thus forming a cylindrical "cell". After the template is removed, the cell is filled with sand, possibly after placing a tremie concrete seal at the bottom. . "Cindy Brent" approaching 1200-foot lock with anhydrous ammonia barge. . Ohio River mile 607. Louisville, Kentucky. March 23, 2001. file # a1c051. .
