Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of assembling metal sheet piles, in particular steel, intended to form, for example, walls which must have a good seal against liquids, such as water.
  • edges of the sheet piles are shaped so as to allow hooking from one sheet pile to another according to a connection which may have a greater or lesser degree of flexibility.
  • edges There are different types of conformation for the edges of sheet piles, these edges being called “claws”.
  • Certain types of claws in particular those of sheet piles called “Larssen sheet piles”, have a flat span, and during the assembly (called “interlocking") of two sheet piles which operates by sliding one claw into the other , the flat surfaces of their respective claws are placed one facing the other.
  • Other types of claws only have curved surfaces.
  • connection between two sheet piles may be desired to seal the connections between two sheet piles, in particular in the case where they are intended to form part of a wall partially submerged in an aquatic environment, for example in a port structure.
  • Several sealing methods are mainly used. We can, first of all, weld the sheet piles after their assembly. This method is long to implement, and welding must be practiced before immersion of the assembly. In addition, the connection thus sealed remains perfectly rigid, while a certain flexibility may be desired.
  • a second method consists, after engaging the sheet piles, in injecting into the space left free between the claws a material, for example based on polyurethane, in the liquid state and which then hardens by forming an elastic seal (see German patent 2722978).
  • a third method finally consists in depositing on the claw of one of the sheet piles of the assembly a layer of an organic material which has a certain elasticity, such as a polyurethane or a rubber, and can also have the particularity of swelling. in the presence of water.
  • a layer of an organic material which has a certain elasticity, such as a polyurethane or a rubber, and can also have the particularity of swelling. in the presence of water.
  • a material is described, for example, in European Patent 50906.
  • the tightness of the connection is properly ensured, and it retains a certain flexibility.
  • the layer of organic material is torn off or damaged when the sheet piles are engaged, under the effect of the intense friction which is established between it and the claw of the other sheet pile.
  • the elastic organic material can no longer play its role effectively.
  • the object of the invention is to make the latter method of sealing connections between sheet piles more reliable.
  • the subject of the invention is a method of sealing the connection between two sheet piles, this connection being effected by means of claws integrated into said sheet piles, according to which, before the said sheet piles are engaged, the adhesion is made to the claw of at least one of the sheet piles a jointing strip of an elastic, compressible and / or water-swellable organic material, characterized in that a metallic strip is fixed on the free surface of said strip, and that the procedure is then carried out when the sheet piles are engaged.
  • the invention also relates to a sheet pile comprising on at least one of its edges a claw allowing its connection with another sheet pile, at least one of said claws being provided on at least part of its length with a strip in an elastic and / or water-swellable organic material, characterized in that the external surface of said strip is covered at least partially by a metal strip which is integral with it.
  • the metal strip is made of steel with a thickness of approximately 200 ⁇ m.
  • the invention consists in covering the external surface of the jointing strip used to seal the connection between two sheet piles with a metal strip which prevents the deterioration of said strip by promoting the sliding of the claws one in the other when the sheet piles are engaged.
  • Figure 1 shows an edge of a sheet pile 1 of the type called "Larssen sheet pile".
  • a sheet pile 1 has at each of its edges a claw 2 which ensures its connection with the sheet pile 1 ′ which follows it in the structure of which they are a part, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • This claw 2 is of identical configuration on each edge of each element, and has a flat span 3 formed on a solid part 4.
  • the solid part 4 ′ Of claw 2 ′ of the second sheet pile fills the interior space 5 delimited by claw 2 of the first sheet pile, with a certain clearance. It is this clearance that, by means of the method according to the invention, it s 'acts to fill so as to seal the connection between the sheet pile 1 and its neighbor 1'.
  • the sheet pile 1 has on the flat surface 3 of its claw 2 a strip 6 made of an elastic material, such as rubber.
  • This strip 6 runs through the claw 2 over the length of the link that it is desired to seal. Its width varies according to the type of sheet pile and is of the order of 15 to 20 mm.
  • the strip 6 is covered on its outer face facing the space 5 by a metal strip 7, which is for example made of steel with a thickness of 200 ⁇ m.
  • the total thickness of the strip-strip assembly must be such that it leaves between the strip 7 and the internal surface 8 of the claw 2 which faces it insufficient space for the solid portion 4 ′ of the claw 2 ′ of the sheet pile 1 ′ can be accommodated there without exerting a compressive force on the elastic tape 6, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • This total thickness depends of course on the dimensions of the claws used, and is generally of the order of 5 to 8 mm.
  • the flat span 3 ′ exerts pressure on the strip 7 and the tape 6, which is erased thanks to its elasticity and thus allows progression of the claw 2 ′ in the claw 2.
  • the presence of the strip 17 makes it possible to carry out a sliding steel on steel.
  • a lubrication of the strip can be carried out to further reduce friction.
  • the metal strip is of the same width as the organic ribbon, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • a width of the strip which is less than that of the ribbon, with however the risk of achieving during the interlocking of sheet piles a friction between steel and organic material on the parts of the tape not covered by the strip, and obtaining less favorable sliding conditions than in the previous case.
  • the claws of the two sheet piles can be provided with an organic tape coated with a metal strip according to the invention.
  • the thickness of the tapes must be calculated so that the space available between the claws of the two sheet piles remains sufficient to allow their engagement.
  • the method described makes it possible to engage sheet piles over long lengths (several meters) without damaging the seals. It is applicable to all types of sheet pile claws, as well as those, such as "Larssen" sheet piles, with a flat portion as well as those which only have curved surfaces. Indeed, the metal strips are thin enough to match the outside surface of the organic ribbon whatever its shape. It is also applicable to connection elements provided with claws which make it possible to connect two sheet piles by imposing particular respective orientations on them.
