At this point, the AquaDam® floats on top of the water. However, it will sink if not
put into place in a timely fashion, due to the weight of the materials incorporated
into an AquaDam® of this size.
This extremely large AquaDam® has been installed and inflated in a crescent shape,
with an over inflated 8' high AquaDam® in front of it to give it support. At this point,
the water inside is trapped, and does not fluctuate up and down with the tide.
The smaller AquaDam® was installed first, and the larger unit was then placed along
the outside edge. The 1" poles in the middle of the picture represent the edge of the work
area. The AquaDams® had to be placed around these markers. It is somewhat easier to place a
smaller unit in the exact spot needed, and then use it like a form to place the larger AquaDam®.
