SHEET PILE
6
Sheet piling is an earth retention and excavation
support technique that retains soil,
using sheet sections with interlocking edges. Sheet
piles are installed in sequence to design depth
along the planned excavation perimeter or seawall
alignment.
Sheet pile is act as a temporary supportive wall that
been driven into a slope or excavation to support
the soft soils collapse from higher ground to lower
ground.
7
Use of sheet piles
* Retaining walls
* Bridge abutments
* Tunnels
* Pumping station
* Water treatment plants
* Basements
* Underground car parks
* Port facilities
* Locks and dams
* Waterfront structures
* Piled foundations
* Excavations and trenches
* Cofferdams
* Ground water diversion
* Barrier for ground water
treatment systems
* Containment walls
* Flood protection
* Coastal protection
* Tunnel cut and cover
* Bulkheads and seawalls
* Weir walls
* Slope stabilization
* Landfill
ADVANTAGES
1. Provides high resistance to driving stresses.
2. Light weight.
3. Can be reused on several projects.
4. Long service life above or below water with modest
protection.
5. Easy to adapt the pile length by either welding or
bolting.
6. Joints are less apt to deform during driving
9
DISADVANTAGES
1. Sections can rarely be used as part of the
permanent structure.
2. Installation of sheet piles is difficult in soils with
boulders or cobbles. In such cases, the desired wall
depths may not be reached.
3. Excavation shapes are dictated by the sheet pile
section and interlocking elements.
4. Sheet pile driving may cause neighborhood
disturbance.
5. Settlements in adjacent properties may take place
due to installation vibrations
10
TYPES OF SHEET PILE
Several types of sheet piles are commonly used in
construction
a) Wooden sheet piles
b) Precast concrete sheet piles
c) Steel sheet piles
d) Aluminum sheet piles
11
12
Various types of wooden and concrete sheet piles
Construction method
Sheet pile may be divided into two basic categories.
1. Cantilever
2. Anchored
Construction methods generally can be divided into
two categories.
a) Backfilled structure
b) Dredged structure
13
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
Sequence for backfilled structure:
step 1: Dredged the situ soil in front and back of
the proposed structure.
step 2: Drive the sheet piles
Step 3: Backfill up to the level of the anchor and
place the anchor system.
Step 4: Backfill up to the top of the wall
14
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
Sequence for dredged structure

place the anchor system.
Step 3: Backfill up to the top of the wall
Step 4: Dredged the front side of the wall

DESIGN OF SHEET PILE IN COHESIVE SOIL
Design of sheet pile in cohesive soil
Calculating active earth pressure
 Calculation of active earth pressure above excavation is
the same as that of cantilever sheet pile in cohesive soil.
The free-standing height of soil is d = 2C/
 The lateral earth pressure at bottom of excavation, pa = 
h – 2C, where  is unit weight of soil. The resultant force
Ha=pa*h/2
Design of sheet pile in cohesive soil
Calculating passive earth pressure
 For cohesive soil, friction angle,  = 0, Ka = Kp = 1.
The earth pressure below excavation,
 p1= p-a= 2C-(h-2C) = 4C-h
 Assume the embedded depth is D, the resultant
force below bottom of excavation is
 HBCDF = p1*D
18
Design of sheet pile in cohesive soil
 Derive equation for D from Mo = 0
 Mo = Ha1*y1 – HBCDF* y3 = 0
 Where
 y1 = 2(h-d)/3-(b-d)
 y3 = h-b+D/2
 The equation can be determined with a trial and
error process.
19
Design of sheet pile in cohesive soil
Determination of anchor force:
1. Determine anchor force T from  Fx = 0
2.  Fx = Ha1– HBCDF-T = 0
3. T = Ha1+ Ha2– HCEF
Design size of sheet pile:
1. Maximum moment locates at a distance y below T
where shear stress equals to zero.
2. T- Ka (y+b-d)2/2=0
3. Solve for y, we have, y = -b+d+2*T/( Ka)
4. The maximum moment is
20
5. Mmax = T y -  Ka (y+b-d)3/6
6. The required section modulus is S = Mmax / Fb
7. The sheet pile section is selected based on section
modulus
Design of tie rod and soldier beam
Design of tie rod and soldier beam is the same as
that of anchored sheet pile in cohesion less soil
21
Design of sheet pile in cohesive soil
Design procedure
1) Calculate free standing height, d = 2C/
2) Calculate pa=(h-d)
3) Calculate Ha=pa*h/2
4) Calculate p1=4C-h,
5) Assume a value of D, and calculate HBCDF =
p1*D
6) Calculate R= Ha*y1 – HBCDF* y3.
7) Where
8) y1 = 2(h-d)/3-(b-d)
9) y3 = h-b+D/2
22
Design procedure
10. If R is not close to zero, assume a new D, repeat
steps 5 and 6
11. The design length of sheet pile is L=h+D*FS,
FS=1.2 to 1.4.
12. Calculate anchored force T = Ha – HBCDF
13. Calculate y = -b+d+2*T/
14. Calculate Mmax = T y -  (y+b-d)3/6
15. Calculate required section modulus S= Mmax/Fb.
Select sheet pile section.
16. Design tie rod
17. Design soldier beam. 23
Design anchored sheet pile in cohesionless soil.
Given:
 Depth of excavation, h = 10 ft
 Unit weight of soil, g = 115 lb/ft3
 Internal friction angle, f = 30 degree
 Allowable design stress of sheet pile = 32 ksi
 Yield strength of soldier beam, Fy = 36 ksi
 Location of tie rod at 2 ft below ground surface spacing, s
= 12 ft
Requirement: Design length of an anchored sheet pile,
select sheet pile section, and design tie rod
24
SOLUTION
Design length of sheet pile:
 Calculate lateral earth pressure coefficients:
 Ka = tan (45-/2) = 0.333
 Kp = tan (45-/2) = 3
 The lateral earth pressure at bottom of excavation is
 pa = Ka  h = 0.333*115*10 = 383.33 psf
 The active lateral force above excavation
 Ha1 = pa*h/2 = 383.33*10/2 = 1917 lb/ft
 The depth a = pa /  (Kp-Ka) = 383.3 / [115*(3-0.333)] =1.25 ft
 The corresponding lateral force
 Ha2 = pa*a/2 = 383.33*1.25/2 = 238.6 lb/ft
25
 Assume Y = 2.85 ft
 HCEF =  (Kp-Ka) Y2/3 = 115*(3-0.333)*2.852/3 =
830.3 lb/ft
 y1 = (2h/3-b) = (2*10/3-2)=4.67 ft
 y2 = (h+a/3-b) = (10+1.25/3-2)=8.42 ft
 y3 = (h+a+2Y/3) = (10+1.25+2*2.85/3) = 13.15 ft
 R = Ha1*y1 + Ha2* y2 – HCEF* y3 =
1917*4.67+238.6*8.42-830.3*13.15 = 42.5 lb
 R closes to zero, D = 2.85+1.25 = 4.1 ft
Length of sheet pile, L = 10 + 1.2* 4.1 = 14.9 ft
=>Use 15 ft 26
 Calculate anchor force,
 T = Ha1+ Ha2– HCEF = 1917+238.6-830.3 = 1326 lb/ft
 Calculate location of maximum moment,
 y = -b+2*T/( Ka) = -2 ft + 2*1326/(115*0.333) = 6.32 ft
 Mmax = T y -  Ka (y+b)3/6 = 1326*6.32 –
115*0.333*(6.32+2)3/6 = 4.7 kip-ft/ft
The required section modulus S= Mmax/Fb = 4.7*12/32 = 1.8
in3/ft
 Use PS28, S = 1.9 in3/ft
Design tie rod, the required cross section area,
 A = T s / (0.6*Fy) = 1.326*12/(0.6*36) = 0.442 in2.
