Project Type: Perimeter Wall, Flood Proofing
Project Description: This is a flood proofing project at a hybrid office/communications facility that was prone to chronic flooding in the Pacific Northwest.
Due to tight spaces, the flood protection system on this installation used primarily 10′ planks.
A custom three-way corner post with a fixed strut.
Hold down clamps tighten the flood planks against the horizontal gaskets creating a watertight flood panel.
A happy flood wall erection crew and a job well done.
This small closure configuration contains a corner post to allow for running the flood system to and away from the inner bulkhead, and also includes two bolt-on bulkhead channels.
These office doors have to open outward to conform to the local fire code.
The rear of the building contains a continuous run of the removable flood wall system.
The stop logs weigh only 5 pounds per lineal foot and are easily handled by office workers.
Drilled-in anchors allow for a bolt-on channel.
These office doors have to open outward to conform to the local fire code.
The tightening of the compression channels forces the stop logs against the vertical gaskets.
