Use of sheet piling in remediation
With society's shift towards greater environmental awareness in recent decades, there is now an emerging need for remediation works on a small, medium and large scale.
For Locapal, this has created a new application, wherein the use of sheet piling has proved to be a simple and safe solution for either temporary or permanent reclamation work.
In such cases, sheet piling is an excellent method for containing the contaminated site, effectively isolating the contaminating material and thus allowing the affected area to be reclaimed
Types of work
- Land remediation where the groundwater level is close to ground level
- Perimeter walls around contaminated sites
- Perimeter walls around landfills
- Perimeter walls around former fuel dumps
