Cellular cofferdam design and practice
Several recent high head steel sheetpile cellular cofferdams are described, including comments on their design and construction; included is description of 115-ft deep Markland power house cofferdam; cell movement, interlock stress determination, sliding resistance, cell drainage, overturning stability, driving penetration and sheetpile failures are discussed; factor of shape in plan arrangement of cells is mentioned; one use of bracing struts in combination with partial mass stability of cells is described; cofferdams founded on rock, and filled with granular materials; use of deflector for constructing cells in turbulent water.
