Did you know that Z-profiles are used for intermediate to deep wall #construction as they are considered to be the most efficient type of #sheetpile available?

About us
Representing individuals and companies that are involved in the manufacture, supply, design and installation of steel foundations. Sheet piles are used in earth retaining structures where a differential surface level is to be established. The sheet pile forms the vertical interface. Steel sheet piles are used for both temporary and permanent retaining walls. Structures include basements, underground carparks and abutments for bridges. It is important to be aware that hot rolled and cold formed sheet piles are not equivalent products, as our guidance documents continue to emphasise. Structurally hot rolled sheet piles are most comprehensively specified, rather than cold formed sheet piles. Hot rolled sheet piles conform to EN 1993-5 for sheet pile walls, which are required to be ‘continuous’ and ‘connected by interlocks’. This is not the case for cold formed sheet piles. Importantly, cold formed sheet piles are more likely to be class 4 sections, which will require additional verification against local buckling. In addition, cold formed sheet piles cannot transmit forces between adjoining elements. Hot rolled steel sheet piling has been manufactured and used for over 100 years. It has continually developed and evolved to make it more useful, more efficient and more sustainable. As a product it has been subject to a metamorphosis in terms of shape, manufacturing, substance, installation plant and capability. Bearing piles are used mainly to support vertical loads. Steel sections can be used as bearing piles where soil and ground conditions preclude the use of shallow foundations. Steel piles are relatively light and easy to handle, and can be driven in most types of ground, including many types of rock.

There are many advantages to the use of #bearingpiles, but we often point to the most important ⤵️ ➡️ Control of the bearing capacity by measurement of the refusal at driving. ➡️ Easy connection to the superstructure. ➡️ Bending moment capacity for horizontal forces. ➡️ Immediate loading after driving. ➡️ Excellent durability; numerous experiences for totally embedded piles showed a corrosion rate tending to zero. ➡️ No limits for the length of the pile, due to an easy adaptation to the soil conditions by splicing. ➡️ Easy installation, considering driving as well as handling, transport and storing.

Steel bearing piles are available in 3️⃣ basic profiles ⤵️ 1️⃣ Universal column H-sections 2️⃣ Tubular sections 3️⃣ Box piles Where piles are fully embedded — for example, the whole length of the pile is below ground level — H-pile sections are most suitable.

There are just over 2️⃣ weeks until our next Open Meeting 🎤 The headline presentation will be delivered by Hossein Ahmadi, who will talk about, 'PDM3 – Pile Testing & Monitoring', exploring how the PDM3’s non-contact measurement methodology can be used to monitor the movement of a broad range of targets to an accuracy of around +/- 0.1mm under static or dynamic conditions. Also hear from David Hopkins, John Thomson, Roy Fishwick, and Steel Piling Group members ⤵ 🗓 7 November 📍 University of Strathclyde, Glasgow 🎟 education@steel-sci.com

Straight web #sheetpiles are designed to form cylindrical structures — but sheet piles are used more widely in #earthretaining structures, wherever a differential surface level is to be established. The #sheetpile forms the vertical interface ⤵️

As we've said before, it is important to be aware that hot rolled and cold formed #sheetpiles are not equivalent products — they are produced to very different standards ⤵️

'Updates on #Basement Guidance' will be explored during next month's Open Meeting, but here's more general information about this important facet of #steelpiling. Remember, the use of steel sheet piles, box piles, and high modulus piles in #basements, provides a factory quality product of known structural integrity ⤵️
