Underwater concrete placement, by Tremie, skip, Pumped concrete, toggle bags, bagwork, usually to build foundations or coastal structures, and [6] grouted aggregate. [6] [7] Underwater rock blasting, or dredging of softer sediments, to clear an area of a navigational hazard, to excavate a canal or basin, or to prepare for foundations.
Assembled tremie placing concrete underwater Hopper, pipes and lifting cap components of a tremie concrete placement tube. A tremie is a watertight pipe, usually of about 250 mm inside diameter (150 to 300 mm), [1] with a conical hopper at its upper end above the water level. It may have a loose plug or a valve at the bottom end.
Underwater construction is industrial construction in an underwater environment. There is often, but not necessarily, a significant component of commercial diving involved. [2] [3] It is a part of the marine construction industry. [4] Underwater welding may be used, and for repair work cutting of steel or concrete may be necessary.
Schematic cross section of a pressurized caisson. In geotechnical engineering, a caisson (/ ˈ k eɪ s ən,-s ɒ n /; borrowed from French caisson 'box', from Italian cassone 'large box', an augmentative of cassa) is a watertight retaining structure [1] used, for example, to work on the foundations of a bridge pier, for the construction of a concrete dam, [2] or for the repair of ships.

Underwater welding Underwater welding habitat for dry hyperbaric welding. Hyperbaric welding is the process of extreme welding at elevated pressures, normally underwater. [1] [2] Hyperbaric welding can either take place wet in the water itself or dry inside a specially constructed positive pressure enclosure and hence a dry environment.
The process of CIPP involves inserting and running a felt lining into a preexisting pipe that is the subject of repair. Resin within the liner is then exposed to a curing element to harden it and make it attach to the inner walls of the pipe. Once fully cured, the lining now acts as a new pipeline.
Underwater oxy-arc cutting Underwater fillet weld in a training pool. Erecting formwork (shuttering) and reinforcing steel for casting concrete. (civils) Underwater concrete placement using a tremie or skip (civils) Oxy-arc cutting (salvage, ships husbandry, offshore) Underwater welding (salvage, ships husbandry, offshore)
