Army corp of engineers vinyl has become the material of choice since the mid 80s and is used whenever possible.
Steel sheet pile seawall.
The truline system is the latest innovation in seawall bulkhead and retaining wall construction in over 30 years.
Truline is the only system for building an 8 steel reinforced concrete wall inside a modular and protective vinyl form.
Steel seawalls come in 8 7 and 5 gauge thickness as well as galvanized.
Vinyl sheet piling vinyl seawall with the approval of and use by the u s.
Shoreline steel began manufacturing steel piling in 1983 and has established a worldwide reputation as a provider of quality american made steel sheet piling.
Attractive and easy to maintain vinyl seawalls can last up to 50 years.
From the photo you can see that the wall is landward of the waters edge.
The angle iron is then properly welded directly to each piling for a secure attachment.
At times the water level will exceed the wall elevation.
Constructing a seawall or a bulkhead with everlast piling ensures decades of maintenance free waterfront living.
Steps were installed for river access.
Steel piling walls in many instances a steel sheet pile seawall is the most feasible solution for the effects of waves and ice at your shoreline.
Shoreguard vinyl sheet pile provides a cost effective and sustainable building material for seawalls and other sheet piling structures that are installed easier resulting in shorter lead times and longer service life over traditional materials such as wood concrete or steel.
So if the wall is five feet high then the steel sheet will embed five feet into the ground.
It combines the best attributes of traditional steel concrete and vinyl materials into one ultimate wall system.
This seawall consists of driving 18 wide pilings of 8 or 5 gauge just under 1 4 thickness solid steel into the lakebed and capped off with angle iron.
The truline system does not compare to single sheet pile because truline is a system to build a steel reinforced concrete wall encased and protected by a double wall double locking vinyl sheet pile form.
They are driven into the lake or riverbed to the depths equaling the height of the wall.
Single vinyl sheet pile has only one lock to rely on.
This river has significate water level fluxuation.
Single vinyl sheet pile strength is based on vinyl strength.
We operate four mini mill roll forming operations that produce 30 different piling sections in six different configurations.
This steel seawall was installed on the elkhart river.
Steel seawalls have a very good lifespan ensuring that you and even your children will enjoy a maintenance free shoreline for many years.
