For this job a 5ft tall 11ft wide (fully filled) 175ft long double closed end (DCE) AquaDam® was used. Here for this project there was no starting bank that was greater than the maximum height of the AquaDam® along it's given path, so a DCE AquaDam® was needed.
The final turn is being made and now the AquaDam® can be unrolled back towards the ending bank.
The AquaDam® is being filled in place. The four (4) workers are standing on the inner perimeter to help keep the AquaDam® in place until the unit has enough head above the water to stay in place on it's own.
This is the starting point of a DCE AquaDam. This unit is being filled by pumps using the lake water.
Here is a photo showing the ending point of the AquaDam. AquaDam's come rolled up similar to a carpet roll.
This AquaDam® almost has enough head to be able to maintain it's own position.
The AquaDam® finally has enough head to be able to maintain it's position. This AquaDam® still has about 2ft to rise above the surrounding water before turning off the pumps filling the unit.
Great job AquaDam!
