Also increasing wall penetration depth can reduce wall bending moments significantly in anchored walls for static case. The simulated results from the analyses showed that increasing wall penetration depth results to reduced wall deformations.

A series of numerical modeling was conducted to evaluate the structural response and the behavior of the sheet pile wall for static and dynamic case during the excavation process using finite difference method (FDM-FLAC 2D) and finite element method (FEM-PLAXIS 2D). This study investigates, how varying the penetration depth affects deformations, anchored forces and wall moments for static and dynamic case. The wall penetration depth is determined during the design using conventional methods and is the usual practice to use the determined depth for construction of the retaining wall. The conventional methods used in the structural design of sheet pile walls are based on the limit equilibrium approach that does not consider wall deformations, which are important for serviceability considerations. The complex soil structure effect makes the earth pressure estimation a difficult task for static and dynamic case.
The design of the sheet pile requires the complete knowledge of the earth pressure distribution behind the wall. Scientific Tracks Abstracts: J Civil Environ Eng Abstract :
