Open Cell Sheetwall

Heres a few pictures of a couple open cell sheetwalls we've done. The first one is in Seward. We built this wall before we dredged because of time restraints put on by the Army Corps.

    Few more. The next two show the tie back wall.

    These two pics got lost in the shuffle. The first pic is a tie back on the Seward job. The second pic is Kodiak.

    Are these all old photo's that were scanned in to digital format?

    The Seward job was done in 03, the Kodiak job we did in 99. The pics were taken on film then scanned into my computer.

    Tell you what Lashlander that makes a good looking sheet pile wall. Using sheetpile for your tie-backs is way nicer that using drilled tie-backs and I suspect way quicker. I would be ashamed to show you what the 1100' of seawall we installed last year looks like. One of the worst engineered projects I have ever been on. Not 1 geo-tech boring along the entire alignment of the wall, relied on historical data for the alignment. We hit edger trimmings 5 to 15' deep, old wood piles, 4' Cedar and Fir logs, you name it we hit it. We finally got it in, but it ain't pretty.
