A self-contained soil stabilization system may include a chassis, at least one motor coupled to the chassis configured to actuate a locomotor configured to move the chassis, and a hopper disposed on the chassis and configured to contain a payload configured to stabilize soil. The payload may be deployed from the hopper to stabilize soil in a target soil stabilization area. In some embodiments, the payload may be a chemical soil stabilization agent, a pile, or a sheet pile.

Embodiments of the disclosure are directed to cellular sheet pile retaining wall systems with unconnected tail walls, and associated methods of use and manufacture. In one embodiment, a retaining system includes a face wall having a plurality of interconnected face wall sheet piles. The individual face wall sheet piles have a first length and extend a first depth into soil, and the face wall sheet piles form an exterior surface facing an exterior environment. The system also includes a tail wall including a plurality of interconnected tail wall sheet piles extending from the face wall away from the exterior environment. The individual tail wall sheet piles have a second length greater than the first length, and the individual tail sheet wall piles extend a second depth into the soil that is greater than the first depth.

A protection assembly for protecting a wall, comprising: a coating system for coating a portion of the wall; a flexible covering for covering the coating system, and having fixing portions at end regions of the flexible covering; and a wall anchor system, wherein, in use, the coating system is located between the flexible covering and wall anchor system, and the flexible covering is anchored, at the fixing portions, in a tensioned condition to the wall by the wall anchor system, so the flexible covering produces a force to press the coating system against the wall.

A sheet piling filler-corner member includes one or more female couplings for engagement of male couplings of connected sheet pilings, and one or more male coupling members for engagement within female couplings of connected sheet pilings. Selective attachment of sheet pilings using the filler-corner member, and/or modification of the filler-corner member into different configurations allows the filler-corner member to universally function as a spacer or filler for adding length to a sheet piling assembly, as a corner coupling, or as a gender-change adapter between sheet pilings.

A king pile for a combined wall system includes a first flange, a second flange, and a web. The first flange has a first flange body that is a generally rectangular plate having a first edge, a second edge, and a face. A first king pile interlock is formed integrally with the first flange body at the first edge, and a second king pile interlock is formed integrally with the first flange body at the second edge. The king pile includes a second flange having a second flange body, the second flange body being a generally rectangular plate having a face. The king pile also includes a web. The web may be a generally rectangular plate that is coupled to the face of the first flange body and the face of the second flange body. The first flange, second flange, and web may be formed separately and coupled by welding.
