End of (2.2) Unit 2 Lab Questions- Portfolio (1-5, 1-5, 1-4) 4. What are some of the drawbacks of these solutions?

One of the main ways to reduce noise pollution with pile driving has been through the use of bubble curtains. They are large rings that surround the pile, and the bubbles that are pumped out reduce the sound waves. Sometimes, though, it doesn't reduce sound waves as much. However, they can also cause construction delays. There are also double-walled piles. You take an ordinary pile and put another pile inside of it. Then, there's an air space in between that the water cannot get to. So now, they would strike the inside pile. So, essentially no sound or very little sound is developed. There is a drawback though, the cost. The double-walled piles are about 20% more than a standard single pile. However, those costs should be mitigated by the effectiveness of the technology. CORRECT!! All of them are correct. (The whole portfolio is correct).
