Word origin
From coffer + dam. The dental dam sense was introduced in English by dentist Sanford Christie Barnum at New York City in 1864 (by metaphor), but after his century it was maintained only in languages other than English (for example, German Kofferdam as a loanword from 19th-century English).
Used in a sentence
“The contractor for the cofferdams, &c., was an Englishman, as were the principle workmen, and all the machinery has been supplied from England.”
“He stood full six feet in height, with noble shoulders, and a chest like a coffer-dam.”
“At fixed injection volume of PVC gels solution, the curvature of MLAs [(microlens arrays)] obtained with patterned electrode substrates at fixed sizes of cofferdam can be tuned by changing the preparation voltage.”
