JFE Steel Sheet Piles

 JFESP

INTRODUCTION
Steel sheet piles that are widely used in the construction of
river embankments, quay walls of ports, retaining walls, cut-
off walls, earthquake strengthening structures, and in many
other types of construction work are becoming increasingly
important.
JFE has been taking full advantage of the state-of-the-art
rolling mills at West Japan Works to produce U-shaped and
linear steel sheet piles that conform to the new JIS standard
(JIS A 5523) established in 2000 and to conventional JIS
standards (JIS A 5528). We also pride ourselves on the
construction of corner steel sheet piles made by integral roll
forming and heavy-duty-coated steel sheet piles (JFE marine
coat) for use in the marine environment.
We are confident that the wide range of steel sheet piles
produced by JFE (JFESP) will fully satisfy the demanding
needs of our customers.
You are kindly invited to find out for yourself the many
advantages to be had in using our JFESP steel sheet piles,
as well.

Notes: 1. The carbon equivalent is calculated using the following formula: Carbon equivalent (%) = C + Mn/6 + Si/24 + Ni/40 + Cr/5 + Mo/4 + V/14
2. The Charpy absorbed energy is the value at the test temperature of 0°C.
3. Joint tension tests are conducted for linear steel sheet piles.
(Refer to Page 11 on linear steel sheet piles for the tensile strength of joints.)
4. The value of free nitrogen is represented by the total nitrogen in accordance with JIS A 5523:2000, item #5. Chemical composition, Note 2.

Shape and Cross-sectional Performance

2 Combined steel sheet piles

Combined steel sheet piles are made by welding two U-shaped
sheet piles together. As a result, great cross-sectional
performance can be expected. Combined steel sheet piles are
used for large mooring quay walls. An appropriate combination
of types permits economical design that best accommodates
each set of design conditions.

JFE marine coat steel sheet piles (heavy-duty-coated steel sheet piles)

Features of JFE marine coat steel sheet piles

1. Excellent long-term anticorrosion characteristics

The JFE marine coat steel sheet pile is coated with chemical-resistant, weather-resistant urethane
elastomer, which can maintain corrosion-resistance and durability for a long period of time.*1)

2. Excellent cost efficiency

JFE marine coat steel sheet piles will maintain the anticorrosion performance for an extended period
of time, thereby lowering the total cost of corrosion proofing of structures.

3. Excellent quality
Produced under rigorous quality control, JFE marine coat steel sheet piles are a uniform, high-
quality product.*2)
*1) Heavy-duty-coated steel sheet piles need periodical maintenance and control after installation. For details, refer to the "Corrosion-proof and
Repair Manual for Harbor Steel Structures" and "Maintenance and Repair Manual for Harbor Steel Structures" issued by the Coastal
Development Institute of Technology of Japan.
*2) Heavy-duty coated steel sheet piles are usually produced in anticipation of use at harbors. Care needs to be exercised when they are to be
used in open seas or under other special conditions.
