Shoreline Zee Lightweight Sheet Pile LZ-8 LZ-7 are very popular in North and South America.Secured when installed to prevent accidental displacement by wind, equipment, or employees.The entire base of the prefabricated modules including the area of any cellular area may be used in determining the contact pressure at the base of the wall. Shoreline Steel offers these Zee lightweight steel materials available in ASTM-A-572 / GR.50 / ASTM-A-328 / Bare or Galvanized finish. Capable of supporting the maximum potential load, but never less than 200 pounds. The contact pressure may be assumed to vary linearly. Marked with the word "hole" or "cover" in a high visibility paint to provide warning of the hazard. If it becomes necessary to remove the cover, a monitor shall remain at the opening until the cover is replaced.

Light cold formed sheet pile shall equal a length equal to LZ-5 and LZ-3 percent of the clear distance between the stems of the “T” shaped modules.

All of the listed Zee lightweight sheet pilings are fully manufactured in the USA. Zee Lightweight Sheeting Cross Section.

Any monitor or employee within six (6) foot of the opening shall utilize a 100% fall protection system. Allowable bearing capacities for prefabricated modular walls shall be determined using a minimum factor of safety of 3.0 for Group 1 loading applied to the ultimate bearing capacity.In the determination of external stability for walls with “T” shaped modules, the base width, B, of each tier shall be reduced to account for the cellular structure being open at the back.W. Conklin Steel and Piling and equipment,also Meever USA Southeast all supply Zee Lightweight Sheet Pile. In order for the Warning Line and Safety Monitor System to be used, the Contractor must first demonstrate, in writing to the Engineer and Construction Safety, that the use of a fall arrest or restraint system is not feasible.
