OZ36 type sheet piles were chosen for this project due to OZ type sheet piles can prevent the reduction of the oblique moment which usually happened due to the soft soil condition. The active force of the soil can push the position of installed sheet piles, so it is change and affect the moment capacity of the sheet pile itself. Not at all, it is also due to the developer satisfied with the experience use of OZ type sheet piles in other projects they did before. Therefore, it is encourage using the OZ type sheet pile in its project again.
