Plastic Sheet Pile Typical Applications

ESC Vinyl PVC Sheet Piles can be utilized for flood protection structures such as Flood Walls or  Levees, Stabilization of Dams, Protection of Piping.

ESC Vinyl Sheet Piles are frequently the optimal solution for fluid containment projects. Vinyl PVC is a inert material that can exhibit superior chemical resistance, water corrosion resistance. The interlocks of the sheet pile can be coextruded with a sealing membrane that further improves cutoff performance. Applications include but are not limited to:

•    Groundwater cut-off
•    Chemical containment
•    Fluid Seepage Barriers
•    Protection of Foundation Structures

Vinyl PVC Sheet Piles can be utilized for flood protection structures as an:


•    Flood Walls / Flood Levee
•    Stabilization of Dams
•    Protection of Piping

 

Vinyl Sheet Piles are frequently utilized to replace old corroded sheet pile structures as a superior alternative with superior corrosion resistance that is environmentally friendly.

Vinyl PVC Sheet Piles can be utilized for water control structures that function by altering the flow of water in a pond, drainage channel or stream. ESC sheet piles have been utilized for water control applications for decades. Examples of utilizing vinyl sheet piles relevant to water control systems include:


•    Baffle Walls for water or waste water flow control
•    River Weirs
•    Pond Linings
•    Channel Linings for agricultural applications
•    River Diversion
•    Mining drainage systems
 

ESC Vinyl Sheet Piles are an eco-friendly material that is light-weight, aesthetic and very corrosion resistant.

The tightness of locks in the vinyl sheet piling walls depends on the following factors:

  • The shape of a lock, which can elongate or reduce the distance traveled by water;
  • The width of a single vinyl sheet pile. The wider the section, the lower the number of locks per unit of the length of the wall, e.g. by replacing 11.81in (300 mm) width piles with 23.86in (606 mm) piles, the leaking factor of the wall will be reduced by the factor of two; 
  • The PVC material is engineered with special compounds for resistance to harmful ultraviolet rays 
  • The hydrostatic pressure affecting the wall. The higher the pressure, the lower the possibility of clogging of  locks;
  • The stress levels at the locks’ contact area. The higher the tightness and the pressure on the locks’ wall surfaces, the smaller the occurring gaps, therefore, rendering the flow of water through the lock limited.

Some strategic investment projects require a guarantee of full water-tightness of the vinyl sheet piling constructions. In response to the needs expressed by customers, a specialized tightening solution based on the use of gaskets specifically was designed for this purpose.

The gaskets are made out of soft PVC and co-extruded into the locks during the manufacturing process. Their shape is determined by the type of vinyl sheet  piles.
