Its been a while so I thought I would let you know what has been happening on the project at Ovingham, we have made some good progress on site even though the weather has been against us somedays, we have been working hard on the upstream cofferdam over the past month, this is an enclosure built within a body of water to allow the enclosed area to be pumped out or drained which then creates a dry working environment so that the work can be carried out safely. we have excavated it to formation level, Installed the stone, as well as installing concrete blinding, rebar and concrete base. Going forward over the next few months this we will be carrying this same operation to install the downstream cofferdam and concrete base. We are also using our crane to assist NWG with the pump replacements.
In the meantime if you have any issues or questions please leave a comment below.
