Design of a Dead-man Sheet Pile Wall

Video Example: Design of a Deadman Sheet Pile Wall


In this example we will design deadman sheet pile wall, supporting a 20ft excavation. The model and analysis have been designed with DeepEX - Shoring Design Software, using the classical limit equilibrium analysis method.


A. Project Description


This design example presents a case with a deadman wall suystem, supporting a 20ft excavation.  Four soil layers are considered, and a 0.6 ksf surcharge is included at the top. The front Sheet Piles (AZ 19) are tied to the deadman soldier piles (HP16x88 @ 8ft). The figure below presents the completed  excavation model.


The analysis is performed with the Limit Equilibrium Analysis method.

C. Deadman Wall Analysis Results


DeepEX can perform full structural and geotechnical design ot all project items (walls and supports). The calculated results (soil and water pressures, wall moment, shear and displacement diagrams, support reactions, structural and geotechnical check ratios and more) can be presented both in tables and graphically on the model area. DeepEX can analyze and present results for all construction stages, allowing the designer to review the full project history and take important descisions for the most efficient model optimization.


The following images present some of the calculated graphs.
