The flood barrier comprises (a) a front panel having a front face, a rear face, a top edge, a pair of side edges, and a base; (b) a rear support attached to the rear face of the front panel to prop the front panel on the base; and (c) an elongated clamp removably and adjustably affixed to the front face of the front panel. The clamp has an edge disposed proximate and substantially parallel to each side edge of the front panel respectively. The clamp is capable of anchoring a long edge of an elongated interconnection gasket. The gasket is capable of placement over the gap between a side edge of the front panel of a first flood barrier and an abutting side edge of the front panel of an adjacent flood barrier. The anchoring action of the clamp on adjacent flood barrier front panels enables the gasket to provide a water seal between the front panels.Field of SearchConnectable sectionsFlexible Flexible Openwork or concave face With fabric Interfitted or interleaved members Jetty Spaced members Associated with solid wall Polypod Lapped panel sections Exposed separator between (1) set or cured concrete, (2) metal, wood, plastic, etc., or (3) prefabricated components With embedded anchor means | |
