Sheet Piling On reclamation, sand fill, sheet piling by crane and drop hammer, vibro hammer or diesel hammer.
- A rate of 20 - 25 No/day to 20 to 35 m deep.
- 1 no = 0.4 m wide on plan and 6 m long.
- Therefore 8 - 10 m/day per rig is achievable.
On more difficult areas, such as through existing ground or a sea wall for example.
- A rate of 10 - 12 No/day to 20 m deep.
- Therefore 4 - 6 m/day per rig is achievable.
For more shallow sheet pile walls
- Driven by - Pilemaster 60.0 m/day
- Driven by - Automatic Drop Hammer 32.0 m/day
Steel for piles is usually readily available and a two week lead in is often all that is required.
Planning and Estimating Production Rates for Sheet Piling
| Task / Description | Slow | Ave | Fast | Units |
| Vibro/Drop Hammer, 10m deep Sand | - | 55.0 | 60.0 | m/day |
| Vibro/Drop Hammer, 35m deep Sand | 3.5 | 32.0 | 38 | m/day |
