F.METHODOLOGY

JO/EWO

As it is required to excavate below the water table, dewatering should be adopted to temporarily
lower the water level during the construction period. Contractor proposes to utilize the Wellpoint
Dewatering System for this purpose and for any free or surface water encountered at the base of

F.2 Wellpoint Method
ENGG CERT

1) A series of wells of required depth are created within the vicinity of the excavated area from
where the water has to be pumped out. The wells are arranged either in a line or a rectangular
form where the wellpoints are created at a distance of at least 2m from each other.

2) Riser pipes or dewatering pipes are then installed into those closely spaced wells which on the
surface are connected to a flexible swing pipe which is ultimately appended to a common
header pipe that is responsible for discharging the water away from the site. The purpose of
using a flexible swing pipe is just to provide a clear view of what is being pumped and the
ISSUED FOR APPROVAL
DESCRIPTION

purpose of header pipe is to create suction as well as discharge the water off the working area.

3) One end of the header pipe is connected to the dewatering pump which draws water through
notches in the wellpoint. The water then travels from the wellpoints through the flexible swing
pipe into the header pipe to the pump. It is then discharged away to the nearest temporary
collection pit/tank. From here, the water shall be collected by a dedicated water tank for
disposal outside the project site.

4) See below typical sketch for wellpoint system. Also, refer to attached dewatering layout plan.
