Soldier Pile and Lagging

Soldier pile and lagging is a very common method of support of excavation above the groundwater level.  Soldier piles could be installed by vibratory, impact hammer or drilled to design depth.  The walls can be cantilevered, laterally braced by internal cross lots, corner braces,  rakers, or externally with  tiebacks extending into the supported soils.
