The present disclosure regards a pile for a pile wall, said pile extending longitudinally between a first and a second end and comprising at least one perimeter profile in a cross section being essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of said pile, said perimeter profile enclosing an uninterrupted area in said cross section, wherein at least one section of the perimeter profile extends outwardly forming a first male connection portion, and the uninterrupted area extends into the first male connection portion, thereby forming a load bearing portion of the pile. Furthermore, the present disclosure also regards a connection arrangement and a manufacturing method.

A retaining wall for retaining matter on a side thereof comprising: a plurality of upwardly projecting primary sheet piles spaced apart from each other and having first structural properties comprising at least one of weight, size, strength and depth to be installed in a supporting body; and one or more intermediate panels of material arranged so as to span the gap between a pair primary sheet piles and to retain at least a portion of the retained matter, wherein the one or more intermediate panels have second structural properties different from the first structural properties.

A system that includes a plurality of front faces configured to be arranged end-to-end in a series. Adjacent front faces are connected together by a different X-shaped or X-wye connector that facilitates installation of reinforcement tail walls. At least one tail wall is connected to each connector. A redundant reinforcing tail wall may be constructed and attached to one of the connectors to provide alternative load path(s).

To suppress the occurrence of a defective shape such as a flange wave or the like by reverse rolling so as to improve the product dimension accuracy and stability of rolling. A production method for forming a steel sheet pile with flanges from a material to be rolled by caliber roll rolling, includes a step of performing reverse rolling on the material to be rolled by a same caliber, wherein: the step of performing reverse rolling includes a step of forming first flange parts across a neutral line and second and third flange parts arranged on both sides of the first flange parts; the caliber includes first flange facing portions for forming the first flange parts, second flange facing portions for forming the second flange parts, and third flange facing portions for forming the third flange parts; and an inclination angle of the first flange facing portion with respect to a horizontal plane is larger than inclination angles of the second and third flange facing portions.

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.

A soil retaining system combining flat sheet pile walls in an open cell configuration includes integral soil anchors providing an improved earth retaining system. Another aspect of the invention is a method of designing and installing a soil retaining system with an open sheet pile cell structure having integral soil anchors. The method includes, inter alia, calculating soil forces by taking into account material strength of sheet pile, soil friction against the sheet pile in combination with the strength of the integral soil anchor, selecting sheet pile size and length based on soil forces calculation; and installation of sheet pile to form a soil retaining system. The integral soil anchors serve to provide higher load resistance to the improved earth retaining system.

A sheet pile retaining wall system employing corrugated sheet piles not requiring temporary shoring to be used when widening and/or stabilization of existing highway embankment. The wall system provides a front face wall having a plurality of resistance fins perpendicularly extending therefrom via three-way connectors. The fin sheet piles first include a brace fin sheet for reducing stresses in the front face wall, then a series of additional resistance fin sheets terminating at an elevation below the face wall for accommodating a pipe drainage/utility cradle. Between the slope of the existing embankment, a temporary excavation bench, an excavation backslope, and the higher front face wall is reinforced concrete backfill for pre-stressing the wall system when fluidand, when set, optionally engaging supplementary structural features within the set concrete backfill such as dowels/tie down anchors.
