The objective of this method statement is to define the rules and conditions design to
ensure that the installation of sheet piles is planned to enable personnel to be aware of all the
procedures and dangers involved and to decide the safest method of work. The methodology will be
modified in the event that the soil condition varies or actual site conditions change. Northern
Builders will remain accountable to ensure compliance with all work and safety measures as stated
in this method statement.
The Scope of work shall consist of the installation of Sheet Piles in accordance with the
specifications in the contract documents. This includes:

b. Survey Works
c. Fabrication of Sheet Pile with Splicing
d. Pile Guide Installation
e. Sheet Pile Driving (Auger Method)
f. Sheet Pile Driving (Vibro – Hammer Method)
g. Inspection
h. Extraction of Sheet Pile
2. Organization

shall be within the project limits. Exact location will be subject to site constraints.
Prior to the commencement of site works, survey shall be carried out to confirm the
existing area over sheet piling locations and the condition of the existing environment.
CP S - 03a / S - 03c
A pile guide shall be installed so that the installed sheet pile will not be misaligned.
Two I – Beams will be used to guide and correct the pile verticality and position. Pile
guide must be thoroughly welded into the sheet pile to maximize its use and
effectiveness and hold the driven piles with each other.
4.8. Inspection
The alignment and verticality of the sheet pile shall be regularly checked as the
installation goes to avoid misalignment.
