compaction near sheet piles
compaction near sheet piles
(OP)
some specs I have seen require ground surface to be at the final level before placing sheet piles. however, a) that makes it difficult to install tie backs and b) placing fill before piling is not always feasible. so, what precautions should be taken if compacted fill is to be placed behind piles?

To avoid building up too much pressure, above active, stay 2 feet from wall with ALL compactors. This applies to all walls retaining fill. Also follow PEinc rule above. I've measured these pressures and they otherwise can get for above design numbers.
