Steel Sheet Piling
Steel sheet piles are steel products made from steel and processed through hot-rolling or cold-bending processes. They can be divided into standard steel sheet piles, cold-bent steel sheet piles, and hot-rolled steel sheet piles. Cold-bent and hot-rolled steel sheet piles have locking mechanisms on their sides, allowing them to be freely combined to form a continuous, closed, and water-stopping sheet pile wall structure.
Locks
Cold-bent and hot-rolled steel sheet piles have locking mechanisms built into their edges, allowing adjacent piles to be freely combined to form a continuous, closed sheet pile wall structure.
Steel Sheet Pile Support
To ensure the safety of underground structure construction and the surrounding environment, steel sheet piles are arranged in rows or in a continuous, closed pattern along the side walls of the foundation pit to support, reinforce, protect, and watertighten the foundation pit.
Embedment Depth
The depth of the steel sheet piles below the foundation pit floor to ensure the stability and safety of the support structure.
Cantilever Steel Sheet Pile Support Structure
A support structure with free tops for the steel sheet piles.
Anchored Steel Sheet Pile Support Structure
A support structure formed by combining steel sheet piles with anchor cables (rods).
Supported Steel Sheet Pile Support Structure
A support structure formed by steel sheet piles and supporting structures installed within the foundation pit. The supporting structures can be made of steel pipes, H-beams, or reinforced concrete beams.
Combined Steel Sheet Pile Support Structure
A support structure in which the upper portion of the foundation pit is protected by natural slope or soil nailing walls, while the lower portion is supported by steel sheet piles.
Steel Waist Beam
A steel beam-like structure installed on the side of the steel sheet piles, connecting to anchor cables (rods) or internal supports. It is generally connected to the anchor cables (rods) using double-jointed channel steel or I-beams, and to the internal supports using single H-beams or double-jointed H-beams.
Fulcrum
A steel sheet pile support structure is a point of restraint against horizontal forces. A single restraint is considered a single fulcrum, while a structure with more than one is considered multiple fulcrums.
