Shoreline sheet piles (MSZ13-312 and MSZ13-340) are smaller than MSZ13-350, but their minimum dimension does not exceed 1 inch. They are used on any floor, roof, or platform to prevent the fall of materials (not personnel). Standard railings – Standard railings should consist of posts, top rails, intermediate rails, and toeboards. E. Floor Opening Protection (12 inches or larger): A 36-inch wide flange MSZ13-406 H-beam retaining wall at the bottom of a creeping slope along Interstate Highway in Richmond, California, experienced bending failure. Floor openings where personnel could accidentally walk should be protected by the following measures. When determining the weight of a cellular modular wall filled with wall filler and essentially open at the bottom of the wall, only 75% of the wall filler weight should be considered effective in resisting the overturning moment. Stairways. All exposed floor openings or platforms, except for open entrances, should be protected with standard MSZ13-350 railings.
Mega Zee 13 sheet piles should be of MSZ13-375 or MSZ13-406. They should be offset or equipped with swing doors to prevent direct access to the openings. The driving torque is typically provided by the horizontal component of the design lateral pressure acting on the pressure surface. Hatch and chute floor MSZ13-340 openings should be protected by one of the following: i. Hinged covers of standard strength and construction with standard railings exposed on one side only. The eccentricity of the resultant force location acting on the wall base should be determined and compared with the maximum allowable eccentricity of MSZ13-312. This wall is not designed to resist the passive loads to which it is subjected.
