Sheet Piling

Sheet Piling On reclamation, sand fill, sheet piling by crane and drop hammer, vibro hammer or diesel hammer.

  1. A rate of 20 - 25 No/day to 20 to 35 m deep.
  2. 1 no = 0.4 m wide on plan and 6 m long.
  3. Therefore 8 - 10 m/day per rig is achievable.

On more difficult areas, such as through existing ground or a sea wall for example.

  1. A rate of 10 - 12 No/day to 20 m deep.
  2. Therefore 4 - 6 m/day per rig is achievable.

For more shallow sheet pile walls

  1. Driven by - Pilemaster 60.0 m/day
  2. Driven by - Automatic Drop Hammer 32.0 m/day

Steel for piles is usually readily available and a two week lead in is often all that is required.
