The ability of a sheet pile section to perform is dependent upon its geometry and the soils it is driven into. Sheet piles are retaining wall elements consisting of a structural section with a vertical interlocking system enabling the construction of a continuous wall. With the interlocks located on the outer fibers of the wall rather than at the center line as is the case with arch or u profile sheet piling sections the wall designer is assured of the published.
The term sheet piling refers to any retaining wall type that is a installed into the ground by driving or pushing rather than pouring or injection and b is of relatively thin cross section and low weight so that the weight of the wall does not assist in the wall s stability. Arcelormittal rolled the first az sheet piles beginning of the 1990 s.

The az s now cover the widest range of strengths representing the strongest most efficient sheet piles in the industry. The az range of sheet piles is the most advanced in the world. Sheet pile is available in a wide range of section modulus per meter of pile wall ranging from 874 to 21 846 cm m.
A few years later in 2004 we launched the az 700 wider. It was at that time an awesome achievement to roll 600 mm wide z type sheet piles with a larssen type interlock the az range was completed with the manufacturing in 1998 of the az 48 the heaviest z section in the world outperformed only in 2016 by a new az section. Steel sheet piles are long structural sections with a vertical interlocking system that create a continuous wall.
Arbed introduced the az line in 1990 and is committed to continuously improving the sections through ongoing aggressive research. Esz steel sheet piling hammer steel sells and rents grade 60 steel sheet piling which can give improvement of 20 in design life compared to a sheet pile in grade 50 steel.
