What is FRP Composite Sheet Piling?

FRP composite sheet piling has been specially

designed as an alternative to conventional steel

sheet piling. Composite sheet piling does not

degrade over time, making it a more environmentally sensitive

solution and, with a longer lifespan than conventional materials, can present

a huge opportunity to make project cost savings.

Used over the last decade in thousands of commercial and private projects,

composite sheet pilings are the strongest and most durable synthetic piling

products in the world. Affording reasonable upfront material costs, lower

maintenance upon installation, and a longer life-span than alternative materials,

composite sheet pilings offer an environmentally sensitive solution with no compromise.

With a high strength to low weight ratio, composite sheet piling provides easier handling

and more economical shipping giving a pricing advantage over conventional steel

sheet barrier methods.

Our FRP composite sheet piling is manufactured by Creative Pultrusions Inc. using the

latest pultrusion technologies. Glass reinforcements, in the form of roving and mats, are

pulled into the heated pultrusion die in a continuous process. Resin is injected under

high pressure to saturate the fibers, and cured in a process known as polymerization.

The pultruded profiles leave the die in a solid state. The hardened result has incredible

strength.

Composite Sheet Piling Performance Properties

Composite sheet piling solutions are often used in projects where other

material options have failed, as the benefits of composite sheet piling

in vertical barrier applications are numerous;

FRP is a non-corrosive, environmentally sensitive material

Life-expectancy exceeds most other containment systems

Strong, durable and abrasion resistant

High strength to low weight ratio

Structural integrity similar to steel allowing for tie-back systems

Thermally and electrically non-conductive

Resistant to UV degradation

Compatible with abnormal pH levels, and resistant to non-aqueous

phase liquids and other corrosive chemicals

Wolf Series FRP composite sheet piling can be used in most applications, including in-situ cut-off and containment

walls and water control systems.

Typical Wall Applications

The Wolf Series FRP composite sheet piling has

been specially designed as an alternative to

conventional steel sheet piling. Without many

of the performance disadvantages of

conventional materials, FRP composite will not

corrode of decay, thereby reducing

maintenance costs and future replacements.

Easier than vinyl to install in challenging soil

conditions, typical applications include;

Acid rock drainage mining sites

Industrial sites

Landfill leachate containment walls

Internal barriers and wing walls for hydro

dams

Dike extension walls

Seepage barriers

Funnel and gate PRB systems

In-situ cut-off walls

Designing with Composite Sheet Piling

A sheet piling wall, known as a vertical barrier, is a row of interlocking, vertical pile

sheets, sealed at the joints, and driven to form a wall.

Composite sheet piling is an engineered product and should be designed with as such.

The vertical barrier must be designed and constructed to withstand the relevant loads,

forces, and environmental influences present in the design.

Important items to note concerning the design of composite sheet piling vertical

barriers are:

Deflection – composite sheet piling can withstand extreme amounts of stress and

deflection before a loss of strength occurs. As with all sheet pile materials, lateral

buckling is a condition of the unsupported length of the sheeting and must be

considered when designing the vertical barrier. Ties backs and additional wales can

be used with composite sheet piling.

Joint strength –the weakest point of any sheet pile is the joint interconnections. Our

composite sheet piles have been designed to achieve the ultimate strength at the

interconnection point, to limit any disconnection under normal driving conditions.

Materials – all components must be made of materials designed to withstand the

conditions expected. Soil geometry characteristics, surcharge loads and

environmental conditions are the primary factors in estimating material requirements. If

any one component is overlooked, the system can fail.

Permeability - FRP composite sheet pile wall solutions can be designed with sealants

added to the interconnections of the profiles to provide permeability rates higher than

that achievable with steel sheet or slurry systems.

Installation –similar to driving other material sheet piles, vibratory hammers, either

excavator or crane mounted, are the ideal tool for driving composite sheet piling.

Mandrel installation equipment can be used to assist the installation of composite sheet

piling vertical barriers.

Cutting – although furnished cut to the specified length, properly clamped and rigid

composite sheet piles can be cut quickly and accurately using a circular saw with a

carbide or diamond edged blade.

Safety – as with all engineered products, factors of safety should be considered during

handling and installation.
