L.B. Foster - Flat Sheet (PS) Piling
FromL.B. Foster Home
Compared to Z - Pile, PS sheet piles offer minimal beam strength. They are typically used for circular cell design. This application applies hoop stress to the sheets, which is transferred to the interlock. The PS Thumb & Finger (T&F) interlock is a three-point contact connection that provides superior pull strength to counter those forces.
Although circular cell design with flat sheets is considered old technology, it is a solid, proven application that is still used by today`s engineers. The OPEN CELL design is an innovative concept that has taken this "old technology" into the 21st century. The OPEN CELL trademark is used with the permission of PND Engineers, Inc.
