Project: Rome Remedial Action Phase III – Sheeting portion

Abscope constructed a permanent 60,000 VSF barrier wall to prevent offsite migration of contaminants at a former Manufactured Gas Plant. The 1,200 linear feet barrier wall was constructed using Waterloo Barrier. The steel sheets were driven to depths of 50 feet below ground surface.  Sheeting was performed underneath and within close proximity to 150KV transmission lines.

Splicing of sheets was necessary to safely accomplish the installation of the sheets. A strict quality control program was implemented during installation of the Waterloo Barrier and the joints of the sheets were inspected, cleaned and grout sealed.
