A deployable cofferdam web-supporting frame assembly for a cofferdam system configured to be installed within a body of water to at least partially delimit therein an enclosure. The deployable cofferdam web-supporting frame assembly comprises first and second frame-supporting structures comprising first and second apexes and first and second groups of longitudinally extending frame-supporting legs each having a waterbed-engaging end, the first and second frame-supporting structure being configurable into a usage configuration wherein the frame-supporting legs are connected to each other with the waterbed-engaging ends thereof being spaced apart from one another, and a storage configuration wherein the frame-supporting legs are substantially parallel to each other; and a connecting assembly connecting the first and second apexes to each other. It also concerns a cofferdam system comprising the same and a corresponding method for delimiting an enclosure within a body of water.

A system for assembling a cofferdam. In a first example embodiment, a cofferdam may be assembled on-site using a plurality of walls that couple each other to form the cofferdam. In a second example embodiment, a plurality of walls and a plurality of connectors may be assembled to form the cofferdam. The walls and/or connectors disassembled for transport and/or storage, yet quickly assembled on-site to form the cofferdam. The panels and/or the connectors may form cofferdams of various shapes and sizes. The walls and/or connectors are made of a durable material that permits multiple uses. The cofferdam may be assembled to hold back the water of a body of water from around a culvert while work or repairs are performed.

A portable cofferdam system for isolating a working area from water such as a culvert. The portable cofferdam system generally includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall each having an interior side, an exterior side, an upper edge, a lower edge and a rear edge. A middle wall is connected to the sidewalls opposite of the rear edges of the sidewalls forming a substantially U-shaped structure. An opening formed between the rear edges of the first sidewall and the second sidewall to allow for positioning about or near the inlet of an object or area to be kept dry such as the inlet of a culvert.

A dynamically deployable, low visibility pneumatic cofferdam for flood mitigation is disclosed. The cofferdam includes a first planar component, a second planar component, an inflatable hermetic airbag sandwiched therebetween, and connection members attached to the first planar component, a second planar component to form a cofferdam unit. The connection members are adjustable to apply and maintain a desired amount of pressure on the airbag to enable a watertight seal to be formed. The cofferdam units may be sized and designed to sealingly mate adjacent cofferdam units in a variety of configurations to form watertight seals. The cofferdam units may also be sized and designed to attach to seawalls, flood walls, sidewalks, or other infrastructure. When in a deployed state, the height of the cofferdam may be adjusted to a desired height to provide flood mitigation. When in an undeployed state, the cofferdam remains in a substantially flat and unobtrusive position.
