Soldier piles and lagging retains soil, using vertical steel piles with horizontal lagging. Whether an open or low headroom site, Keller has the equipment and experience to design and construct the optimal solution.

A soldier pile is a common retaining wall strategy in which H-shaped steel beams (“piles”) are drilled deep into the earth at regular intervals — usually 2 to 4 yards apart. In between each vertical pile, horizontal supports fill the gap, helping to spread the load.

Mar 7, 2019 · Soldier piles are drilled or driven vertically into the ground considering vertical elements like a steel beam, pile, pipe spaced between 6 to 10 feet. It is designed to limit the horizontal movement of soil excavation.

Soldier pile retaining wall is usually employed for situations where the earth backfill is needed to be retained temporarily for example at the construction site. Soldier pile wall consist of wide flange steel beams (soldier piles) and wood lagging.

Apr 15, 2021 · Soldier pile walls are constructed by driving or drilling and setting steel piles. Wood lagging is then installed in 5-ft lifts.

King post/soldier piles and lagging walls are a cost effective system of temporary or permanent retaining wall using beams and pre-cast concrete panels.

Soldier Piles are steel H piles that are vertically driven or drilled into the earth at regular intervals prior to excavation. As excavation progresses in stages, horizontal lagging in the form of timber or precast concrete is added behind the flanges to create the Soldier Pile and Lagging Wall.

Soldier pile walls provide a core system for earth retention in both temporary and permanent applications. Structural “soldier” piles are installed from original grade. Then, as the site excavation proceeds in lifts, lagging is placed between the piles to retain soil.

Soldier pile walls are a versatile and widely used method for retaining soil and preventing erosion in construction and civil engineering projects. Among the various techniques for installing soldier piles, two stand out as popular choices: driven and drilled soldier piles.

Solider pile and lagging (SP&L) earth retention systems consist of closely-spaced vertical steel piles with horizontal lagging installed between the piles. Soldier piles are installed by: 1) driving (or vibrating) steel H-piles or 2) drilling steel pipe into the ground prior to excavation.
