What Is Dewatering?
Dewatering is used to describe the action of removing excess groundwater or surface water from a construction site. Dewatering is used on most construction sites where there is accumulated water or a high water table. This is typically for structures which extend to below groundwater level.
In order to lower the water table, a wellpoint system is installed which allows for safe excavation.
Methods of Dewatering And Groundwater Control:
- Wellpoint systems
- Deepwell systems
- Ejector systems
- Sump pumping
- Siphon draining
- Groundwater monitoring and sampling
