U-shaped steel sheet piles Z-type steel sheet piles

The steel sheet pile is a kind of steel structure with linkages on the edge, and the linkages can be freely combined to form a continuous and compact retaining wall or retaining wall. There are cold-formed steel sheet piles, hot-rolled steel sheet piles; U-shaped steel sheet piles, Z-shaped steel sheet piles, L-shaped steel sheet piles; S-shaped steel sheet piles, linear steel sheet piles. Common steel sheet piles include Larson type steel sheet piles, Lackawanna type steel sheet piles, etc. 

Advantages of U-shaped steel sheet piles

1) The specifications and models of U-shaped steel sheet piles are abundant.

2) Designed and produced according to European standards, the structure is symmetrical, which is conducive to repeated use, and is equivalent to hot rolling in repeated use.

3) The length can be customized according to customer requirements, which brings convenience to the construction and reduces the cost.

4) Due to the convenience of production, it can be pre-ordered before leaving the factory when used together with the combined pile.

5) The production design and production cycle are short, and the performance of steel sheet piles can be determined according to customer requirements.

The locks of the Z-type steel sheet pile are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the neutral axis, and the web is continuous, which greatly improves the section modulus and bending stiffness, and ensures that the mechanical properties of the section can be fully utilized. Because of its unique cross-sectional shape and reliable Larssen lock.

Advantages of Z-type steel sheet piles:

1. Flexible design, with relatively high section modulus and mass ratio;

2. Higher moment of inertia, thereby increasing the stiffness of the sheet pile wall and reducing displacement deformation;

3. The width is large, which effectively saves the time of hoisting and piling;

4. The increase of the section width reduces the number of shrinkage of the sheet pile wall and directly improves its water-stopping performance;

5. Thickening treatment is carried out on the severely corroded parts, and the corrosion resistance is more excellent.
