Abstract
One of the earliest earth retention technologies used in civil engineering projects is sheet pile walls. The goal of this thesis is to provide the findings of a research project on the effect of wall height on sheet pile wall behavior. The conventional approaches for designing sheet pile walls are dependent on the limit equilibrium approach and do not take into account wall deformations, which are critical for serviceability. The anchor placement is obtained using traditional practices during the design phase, and the depth found is used to construct the wall. This research looked at how different anchor depths and numbers affect wall moments and deformations, as well as the anchor force at various level of anchored sheet pile. In addition, a parametric research was conducted to explore the effect of different soil conditions (loose, medium, and dense sands) and wall heights on the behavior of both cantilever and anchored sheeting pile walls by using finite element program PLAXIS 2D. The sandy soil with drained case was modeled by using Mohr- Coulomb soil model. For both cantilever and anchored walls, the results reveal that increasing wall height (H) results in increasing the wall deformations and bending moment value. Furthermore, when the walls are anchored, increasing the anchor numbers can greatly reduce wall deformations, and wall bending moments.
