Executive Summary

Four times of model experiments were performed respectively on four kinds of sheet pile walls; the sheet pile wall having inclined ground surface in front of it, the cantilever sheet pile wall, the deadman anchored sheet pile wall and the impervious double sheet pile wall, which have respective problems in the design. The behaviours of these sheet pile walls were observed. The experiment was carried out only once for each sheet pile wall so that the accurate analyses were impossible. The purpose of this report is presentatin of the data of these somewhat rare experiments and of some analyses which are now available.
