A. McClure Public Terminal

This project included pre-coating of flat plates (4,5m wide by 3,0m high), which were installed by means of Acotec’s DZI mobile cofferdam.

The plates are attached with special bolts to the existing sheet piles. The empty area’s created in the inpans of the existing wall, are filled with a special formulated concrete to create an armoured wall behind the plates.
