What is Z type sheet pile?
Z-shaped sheet piles are called Zs because the single piles are shaped roughly like a horizontally stretched Z. The interlocks are located as far away from the neutral axis as possible to ensure good shear transmission and increase the strength-to-weight ratio.
Z-type sheet piles are interconnected at its top and bottom flanges to form a continuous wall. Usually, this profile is installed for ports, jetties, and other offshore structures. Site conditions for offshore applications usually translate to larger design forces which have to be resisted by the sheet pile walls.
