Structural Behaviour of Sheet Pile Retaining Walls: A Review Paper

V. Vedha Narayanan, G. Kumaran

Abstract


Sheet pile system consist of a series of individual sheet pile unit inter connected using special fascinations which resist the lateral pressure imposed on them. Based on the materials it resist sheet pile system may be cofferdam (resist water), earth or other retaining structure. This paper consists of three parts, first part briefly explains the history and evolution of sheet pile system, second part discus the materials used in sheet pile system, and the third part elaborates the various applications of sheet pile system. In conclusion the material to be selected for sheet pile system is explained based on the structural performance and case studies.
