Sheet Piling
This can be used as a retaining wall to hold back dirt in the case of a building or home being constructed next to a crumbling embankment. Sheet piling can also be used to hold back water, to make a docking area for boating or swimming or to reface an existing crumbling concrete facade of an existing marina.
This photo was taken in Sault Saint Marie, Ontario. The large ships have come in and damaged the sheet pile wall at the pier. Weatherall Dock and Dredge Inc. removed the old sheet piles and replaced them with new ones.
This is a sheet pile wall for a small marina in Bobcaygeon, Ontario. The area was dredged and a new retaining wall was placed around the perimeter of the water.

are tapped into the ground until resistance is reached and then they are tied back and backfilled.
