They are used in marine-based structures and in land-based structures where the surface soil layers cannot provide the required load-bearing capacity. In all situations, piles are utilized to transfer lateral, vertical or a combination of both loads through weak soil layers to a suitable bearing layer. The most common techniques used for Sheet Pile construction are described here.based structures and in land-based structures where the surface soil layers cannot provide the required load-bearing capacity.

Sheet Piling is a form of driven piling using thin interlocking sheets of steel to obtain a continuous barrier in the ground where the soil condition is poor.
