High Modulus Walls

Some projects need walls that are stiffer or stronger than standard sections. This chapter covers high modulus walls, which combine sheet piles with other elements to achieve higher section properties.

It covers piles reinforced with cover plates, arc buckstay walls, Z-type master or king pile walls, and anchor systems for HZ walls, and how each type is selected and detailed.

The chapter helps designers choose a system when ordinary sections are not enough.
