A seawall, like the foundation of a building, must be designed and constructed to handle very high loads and withstand numerous forces and environmental influences. A typical seawall is made up of sheet piling, and an anchor system (typically a wale beam, tie rods, and “dead-man” anchors).

All components must be made of materials designed to withstand the forces and environmental conditions expected. If any one component is overlooked, the system can fail. High performance seawall components are available in a number of colors and styles, and are produced in a wide range of strength capabilities.

Soil characteristics and other environmental conditions are the primary factors in determining sheet pile requirements. Using these properties and standard design methods, the wall’s designer will be able to specify sheet length and the required structural capacity of the sheet piling and anchor system components.

For the budgetary and comparison purposes of this exercise, CMI has evaluated several wall construction styles in typical soil conditions. These evaluations, in no way, represent the loading, soil, and/or site conditions for any particular project or location.

- WARNING -The following charts and tables list typical values for budgetary purposes only. Please rely on your engineer for specific design recommendations. Because of the complexity of geotechnical loading calculations and the susceptibility to extreme change of wall loads with minor changes in local site conditions such as soil parameters, water levels, and surcharge loads, etc., we strongly recommend the use of design professionals who are familiar with local wall construction to determine the required sheet piling and component capacity.

Before you begin:

Have in mind the architectural style the owner would like to achieve.

Long gone are the days when a seawall was built solely to retain earth. In the new sheet piling market, aesthetics often drive the structural decisions. A seawall is an investment. Much like a house, you have to live with this investment day in and day out. Choose the look that you want, and suitable components are available to fill that desire. A comprehensive sampling of color and architectural variations can be reviewed at www.cmiseawalls.com.

Determine the effective height of the wall (H).

Wall height (H) is defined as the distance from firm soil at the base of the wall to the top of the wall. This value will be used throughout the guide.

Determine the Linear Footage of the wall (L).

Linear Footage (L) is defined as the total length or distance along the shoreline the seawall is intended to protect.

Step 1. Choose the wall type.

While there is no single “right” way to construct a sheet pile wall, there are different advantages and tradeoffs achieved by varying component configurations. Shown below are four common sheet pile wall configurations and conditions. This guide will evaluate component selection based on these scenarios.

Step 2. Select a Sheet Pile Product

The sheet piling must meet or exceed the strength requirements of the job. For the conditions specified in step 1, the charts below show each product’s estimated maximum wall height (H) based on moment capacity (the sheet’s ability to resist bending). Depending on local conditions and the structure’s configuration, different achievable wall heights may be determined.

The chart above is based on typical values, shown in step 1 of the Estimating Material Requirements guide published by CMI and each product’s rated bending moment capacity, for budgetary purposes only. Please rely on your engineer for specific minimum embedment depths, deflection checks and other design recommendations. Because of the complexity of geotechnical loading calculations and the susceptibility to extreme change of soil loads with minor changes in local site conditions such as soil parameters, water levels, surcharge loads, etc., we strongly recommend the use of design professionals who are familiar with local wall construction to determine the required sheet piling and component capacities. The bending moment contribution of face piles, where applicable, is neglected for the purposes of this exercise.

Step 3. Select the anchor system components and cap

The anchor system is composed of anchors (buried in stable soil), tie rods (which connect the wall to the anchors), and a wale (which distributes the load from the wall to tie rods). Capping is used to finish the look of the seawall and in many circumstances can perform the function of a top wale as well.

Wale Selection – Appearance commonly dictates wale selection. The wale may lose its “laser straight” look long before actual failure. For this exercise, a deflection limit of L/360 was imposed, as well as the maximum allowable bending moment. The maximum allowable rod load was also evaluated for a minimum washer size of 4”x4”. Several wale options are given for each typical scenario as defined in step 1.

Tie Rod Spacing – It is important to ensure that tie rods fall on the outer corrugations of the sheet for proper load transfer. This consideration, as well as budgetary concerns, should be evaluated when deciding on the tie rod spacing. Polymer coated steel as well as aluminum rod options are shown.

Anchor Selection – Anchor selection is heavily dependant on soil conditions. Your wall relies on the anchor and soil interaction to resist the forces placed on them by the wall. As with all components, proper design techniques should be executed to determine the suitability and placement of the anchor.

Capping – Capping is the finishing touch to a seawall, and is often used as a top wale as well. When per forming the function of a wale, the suitability of a cap product is highly dependant on site conditions and each product should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Using the charts below select the appropriate wale, anchor rods, and anchor, then choose your capping.

Step 5. Estimate the number of sheets required

Divide the anticipated linear footage (L) of your wall by the width of your sheeting choice and round up to the next whole number.

Sheet quantity ~

Step 6. Estimate the number of wale sections

Divide the anticipated linear footage (L) of your wall by the length of your wale choice and round up to the next whole number.

Step 4. Estimate the required sheet pile length.

Although proper design techniques will yield the required sheet pile length, the sheet piling industry rule of thumb for an anchored wall is “half-in, half out.” The estimated sheet length is typically two times the wall height (H). If the soil at the base of the wall is soft or irregular in depth, longer sheets may be required.

Estimated Sheet Length ~ 2 x H



Step 7. Estimate the number of Anchor rods and Anchors

Divide the anticipated linear footage (L) of your wall by the rod spacing (A), round up to the next whole number, then add 1.

Step 8. Estimate the number of cap sections

Divide the anticipated linear footage (L) of your wall by the length of your cap choice and round up to the next whole number.

Anchor rod and Anchor Quantity ~

Wale section quantity ~

Step 8. Estimate the number of component corners and accessories

Estimate the number of sheet, cap, and wale corners that will be required as well as any accessories desired. Most sheets have around 10-12 of play in each lock. If a larger angle needs to be made, corner pieces may be required. Cap and wale corner inserts are available in 45 and 90 for most products. A wide array of special washers and other accessories are available as well.

I like the look of vinyl, and the box profile

CL 9900 is a 2’ wide sheet, so it needs to be divided by 2. I will use a TimberGuard wale so I would like it to divide into 16’ or 20

I want to keep the look and color similar to the sheet
