Objective
The objective of Example 1 is to assess the programs’ ability to consider the following
conditions:
Cohesionless Soil
Soldier Pile Wall
Anchors
Single Level of Support
Specifications
As CT shoring is a design
software not a analysis soft-
Figure 1. Dimensions of Example 1 Excavation ware we cannot assign the
Table 1. Summary of Example 1 Excavation and Structure bonded and unbonded
length.
Item Specification
Wall W10x100 piles; 5’ spacing; 36 ksi steel
Anchor 1-3/8” diameter bar; 150 ksi steel; 80,000 lb preload; 20’ bonded; 30’ unbonded;
10’ spacing
Excavation 100’ along wall; 50’ wide
Dimensions
Water At depth such that there is no influence on excavation.
Table
We converted this preload
value to bond strength ac-
cording to FHWA manual, as
CT Shoring requires the bond
strength.

The program calculates an embedment for moment equilibrium, then increase the embedment by 1.2
*********************************RESULTS*****************************************
* EMBEDMENT Notes *
Based on USS Design Manual, first calculate embedment for moment equilibrium, then increased the
embedment to get the design depth.
The program calculates an embedment for moment equilibrium, then increase the embedment by 1.2
Embedment Information:
Pile Spacing: sheet piles are one foot or one meter; soldier piles are one pile.
Moment and Shear are per pile spacing: 5.0 foot or meter

The pile selection is based on the magnitude of the moment only. Axial force is neglected.

The pile selection is based on the magnitude of the moment only. Axial force is neglected.
Piles are more rigid than timber lagging, due to arching, only portion of pressures are acting to lagging,
30-50% loading is suggested.
