Abstract
AbstractThis article describes innovative steel sheet pile solutions to protect urban areas from floodings. Recent examples, like the successful protection of the Weser Stadium in Bremen against storm surge Axel in 2017, demonstrate that steel sheet pile walls are fast to implement and fit for purpose during a hazardous event. In addition, steel sheet piles, as construction product, are a major actor in the circular economy. It's because they can be re‐used up to 10 times, and later recycled into new steel products. Finally, a method to evaluate water discharge through steel sheet pile walls is presented and reworked with examples for practical application.
