Groundwater control
Control groundwater movement before and during construction to create safer, drier and more stable working conditions.
DURBE develops targeted groundwater-control programs around the actual pathways, water pressures, construction sequence, neighbouring assets and required outcome.
Control the pathway—not only the visible water
Groundwater may travel through connected soils, rock discontinuities, interfaces or disturbed zones before appearing in an excavation or structure. DURBE identifies and treats the connected mechanism responsible for the movement.
- Pre-excavation groundwater control
- Active control as excavation and construction advance
- Targeted cut-off barriers and low-permeability zones
- Reduced reliance on continuous pumping
- Protection of adjacent ground, structures and sensitive environments
Adapt as conditions change
Treatment response is monitored throughout application. Pressure, flow, volume, material take, refusal and observed groundwater behaviour inform controlled adjustments while the work is underway.
Applications
- Tunnels, cross passages and portals
- Stations and deep shafts
- Sewers, outfalls and utility tunnels
- Pipeline crossings and below-grade structures
Control the water movement. Maintain the construction sequence. Verify the achieved condition.
