SHEET PILE

I. Parameters:
Weight of Selected Fill, ɣs = 17.00 kN/m^3
Weight of Saturated Soil, ωs = 18.00 kN/m^3
Weight of Water, ωw = 10.00 kN/m^3
Eff. Unit Wt. of Saturated Soil, ɣs' = 8.00 kN/m^3
Surcharge, S = 10.00 kPa
Soil Angle of Friction, Φ = 27.00 deg
Active Pressure Coef., Ka = 0.375 (using Rankine)

II. Wall Pressures:

P1 = 14.25 = (S*Ka + ɣs*H*Ka)*B = ( 3.75 ) + ( 22.3125 )
P2 = 38.27 = P1 + ɣ's*D*Ka*B = ( 14.25 ) + ( 3*D )
P3 = 62.93 = (ɣ's*D*(Kp-Ka)*B) - P1 = ( 9.64*D ) - ( 14.25 )
P4 = 186.99 = (ɣ's*D*(Kp-Ka) + ɣs*H*Kp+S*Kp)*B = ( 9.64*D ) + ( 109.81 )

III. From statics, the following conditions must be satisfied;

(Summation of Horizontal Forces)
ΣFh = 0.00
0 = H*(P1+ P0)/2 + D*(P1+ P2)/2 + z*(P3+ P4)/2 - D*(P2+ P3)/2
0 = ( 31.5 ) + ( 210.23 ) + ( 124.96*z ) - ( 405.09 )

z= 1.307

(Summation of Moment at Point-O)

ΣMo = 0.00
0 = H∗P0∗(0.5H+D)+ (H(P1−P0))/2 (D+H/3)+(D2∗P1)/2+z2(P3+P4)/6 −(P2−P1)/6

0 = ( 128.05 ) + ( 168.55 ) + ( 456.69 ) + ( 71.19 ) - ( 1081.06 ) + ( 256.58 )

III. Location Point of Zero Shear

y= 1.48 = P1 / (ɣs* (Kp-Ka)) = ( 14.25 ) / ( 8 )*(1.205 )

P1 Area = 24.94 kN
P2 Area = 10.53 kN
P3 Area = 35.47 kN
x= 2.71

III. Maximum Moment

M1 = 139.67 = (P1 Area x L1)

M2 = 38.95 = (P2 Area x L1)
M3 = 32.07 = (P3 Area x L3)
L1 = 5.60 m
L2 = 3.70 m
L3 = 0.90 m
M= 146.54 = (M1 + M2 - M3)
Mu = 190.51 = (M1 + M2 - M3)/meter width

III. Required Section Modulus

f= 207.00 = Allowable Stress = 0.6x fy

Sx req = 707941 =M/f
Sx req = 707.94 cm3/m

Sx = 874.00 cm3/m

III. Summary
3
