Design and Construction Concrete Sheet Piles for Riverine Embankment Work in Mekong River Delta, Vietnam

Abstract

Recently, in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam, river bank erosion has been very complex and serious, causing great economic and social losses. In particular, there are very serious river bank erosion with wide and very deep areas such as Vam Nao river-An Giang, Tien river passing Dong Thap… The solution of embankment is commonly used with prestressed reinforced concrete sheet piles, which is limited in pile length; or with a combination of steel pipe plywood which has high price. To overcome this disadvantage, the article proposes the solution of spun concrete pile wall in combination with prestreed reinforced concrete sheet piles with shorter length (referred to as semi-continuous pipe-sheet pile wall) for the riverine embankment wall in the Mekong Delta, typically the embankment of Vam Nao river. Based on the results of calculation and analysis, this concete pipe-sheet pile wall structure is a logical design solution in weak geological conditions and deep erosion.
