I've gotten deep in the weeds on Sheet Pile Connectors.

What is the difference between a "Larrsen" connection type and a "Larrsen-Omega?"

It looks like the Omega connectors are just a general purpose connector that will let you do a range of corner angles.

I want to make sure I'm understanding though.

Thank you,

Joel
 
Omega connections are used at junctions , corners etc and compatible to the Larssen connectors.

Pls look to the following book for more detail.

unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. . . .

Larssen is a type of interlock found on hot-rolled AZ, NZ, and other brands of SSP. The other common type of interlock is the ball and socket interlock found on PZ and PZC SSP. The Omega is just a type or model of SSP corner that can provide certain turn angles for SSP walls. The Larssen and the ball and socket corners are not interchangeable.
