DESIGN OF SHEET PILE WALLS

This manual, \IDesign of Sheet Pile Walls\n, is adapted from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers" Technical Engineering and Design Guide No. 15. Its purpose is to provide guidance for the safe design and economical construction of sheet pile retaining walls and floodwalls. It covers topics such as the: 1) Planning and execution of geotechnical investigations; 2) calculation of different types of system loads such as earth pressures and water loads; 3) design of rotational stability; 4) analysis ofsoil-structure interaction; and 5) the exploration of special design considerations such as corrosion and settlement.
