Designation of steel grades

Hot-rolled steel sheet piles must comply with DIN EN 10248. The following table lists various hot-rolled steel grades for sheet piles; steel grades S 270 GP and S 355 GP are generally used. The choice of steel grade depends on structural aspects, the method of driving selected, the embedment depth and the ground conditions. Steel grades for hot-rolled steel sheet piles and their characteristic mechanical prop- erties to DIN EN 10248-1

The characteristic mechanical properties of cold-worked steel sheet piles according to DIN EN 10249-1 are shown in table 2.2. These sheet piles are used, for example, when a lightweight section is required or for trench sheeting.
