Reduced modulus action in u-section steel sheet pile retaining walls
U-section steel sheet piles are used for constructing retaining walls and they are connected together to form continuous walls using sliding joints located along their centerlines. Interpile movement along these joints can, in theory, reduce strength by 55% and stiffness by 70%, in comparison with t...
