Experimental and Theoretical Study for Pizometric

Abstract

In this work an experimental and theoretical study was done to test the effect of upstream, intermediate and down stream sheet piles inclination ,then the optimum case of the uplift pressure reduction was found .The study consisted 12 separated case of these inclined sheet piles with changing the direction of this inclination .Two angles of the inclination were tested 37,67 for each sheet pile .Many of uplift pressure distribution curves under the structure were plotted .Many conclusions for each sheet pile were found also.
