Retaining Wall Sheet Piling Construction Parking

We have over 4 years of design experience specializing in steel foundation design to support structures built with steel products. These applications include Bulkheads, Seawalls, Underground Parking Garages and Basements, Levee Walls and other related foundation and retaining wall applications.

To using sheet piling for underground structures, it highlighted the advantages of using sheet piling as the permanent wall for underground parking garages. We ave covered all methods of construction, including “Bottom-Up”, “Top-Down” and “Hybrid-Top-Down”. How sheet piling have been proven to speed up construction resulting in an overall savings for the owner and contractor.

Sheet piling were shown to be water tight and able to effectively withstand lateral soil and water loads. A number of installation methods were presented that demonstrated how the use of sheet piling can accelerate construction. Most interesting was the method of driving piles while constructing the structure from the top down. Excavation proceeds at increasingly deep level below ongoing construction above while the sheet piling contain the excavation.
