Sheet Pile + Anchored Bulkhead Designer — Ebora

🌊 Sheet Pile Designer

Embedment of a sheet-pile wall in cohesionless soil — cantilever (simplified moment-balance about the toe) and anchored bulkhead (free-earth-support: moments about the anchor → embedment D, then ΣH → anchor force T). Rankine K_a / K_p, optional surcharge, dry or fully-submerged effective unit weight, with a scaled diagram, worked steps and a PDF report.

Wall type

Cantilever: no anchor; the embedment alone resists. Simplified moment-balance about the toe.

Geometry & soil (cohesionless)

Retained height H (m)

Anchor depth a (m)

φ (deg)

Surcharge q (kPa)

Soil / water condition

γ moist (kN/m³)

FS on passive / depth factor

Single effective unit weight γ_e is used throughout (dry → γ; submerged → γ′ = γ_sat − 9.81, with balanced water assumed). Design embedment = factor × theoretical depth (typ. 1.2–1.4).

Worked solution

⚠️ Teaching tool for cohesionless soil with a single effective γ. The cantilever result is the simplified moment-balance (first approximation); the rigorous net-pressure (Das) method gives a slightly different depth. Confirm against your course method and code before any real design.
