Design method of double row wall steel sheet pile cofferdam views.
Double wall sheet pile cofferdam design.
Sometimes an inside berm provides to take the phreatic line.
They are double wall cofferdams comprising two parallel rows of sheet piles driven into the ground and connected together by a system of tie rods at one or more levels.
This type of cofferdams if higher than 2 5 m should be strutted.
This consists of two straight parallel vertical wall of sheet piling tied to each other and the space between them filled with soil.
The space between the walls is generally filled with granular material such as sand gravel or broken rock.
A sketch of double wall cofferdam is given in fig 4.
Double walled sheet pile cofferdams.
The width between the parallel piles is h 2 1 50 m.
Sometimes an inside berm is provided to keep the pheratic surface within the berm.
A double wall sheet piling cofferdam comprises two straight parallel vertical walls of sheet piling tied to each other.
Double wall sheet pile cofferdam higher than 2 5 m should be strutted.
The gap between walls is filled with soil.
Geotechnical design of sheet pile cofferdams.
198 double walled cofferdams are those in which two parallel rows of steel sheet piles are connected with means of a track or a plurality of steel enclosed purlin brackets.
The space between the walls is generally filled with granular material such as sand gravel or broken rock.
