As one can see, there are a lot of factors that affect the amount of
settlement on a shoring application. In Example 7.2 the thickness of
the sheet pile and the inevitability of ground loss in cohesive soils F3
had the greatest effect. Using a thinner wall thickness on the sheet
pile would also have resulted in deflection and ground loss, most
likely equivalent to the volume the thick pile used up. Ground loss is
inevitable; however, by focusing on the contributing factors it is
possible to control it, at least to the extent that it is cost-effective.
