Abstract (en)

The invention pertains to a liquid-fillable barrier (1) comprising a tubular member (2) having a base (3) and, when deployed, two upwardly tapering sidewalls (4), an elongated cavity having a central axis, at least a first partition (6) wall fixed inside the tubular member (2) and dividing the cavity in at least two compartments (8, 9), and at least one spout (12) for the introduction of a liquid, preferably water, into the cavity. The first partition wall (6) extends, when deployed, parallel to the central axis, dividing the cavity of the member into a lower compartment (8) and at least one upper compartment (9). By dividing the cavity into horizontally extending compartments, a stable basis can be provided prior to filling the other compartment(s). <IMAGE>
