Water Filled Flood Barriers Successfully Protect Viking Ship Museum

Water Filled Flood Barriers Successfully Protect Iconic Viking Ship Museum During Storm Surge

By Brian Njogu Case Studies

Storm Malik made landfall in Denmark on January 29, 2022, breaking records to be the strongest storm to hit the country in six years.

It posed a great threat to central buildings including cultural heritage sites such as the National Viking Ship Museum located in Roskilde.

The NoFloods water-filled flood barriers were deployed as a countermeasure to protect the iconic museum from flooding.

The deployment was successful as no damages were recorded.

The effectiveness of the barriers attracted the attention of the national press media and TV who covered the event 24/7.

This resulted in thousands of visitors flooding the museum island that was well protected by the “WaterTubes”.

A pedestrian ladder enabled the visitors to access the protected part of the island.

Here are a couple of pictures showcasing the barrier in action.

And here’s a video of the water filled flood barriers protecting the iconic National museum.

The illustrated solution in the images and video above consists of:

NoFloods PRO barriers – Inflatable flood barriers in a Triple tube and TwinTube configuration.
NoFloods Semi-Pro – Inflatable flood barriers in 2 sections of 10 meters/30 ft.
NoFloods Basic – Inflatable flood barriers in between columns.
