The plan and 3D elevation of an earth retaining structure used for support excavation is
shown in Figs. 3 and 4 respectively. The retaining structure is made of wood planks
supported in the horizontal direction on vertical steel piles (HP sections). The HP piles shape
of an H and are typically used for piles. The section properties of these sections (A, I, S,
etc…) are given in Part 1 of the AISC steel manual. The spacing of the supporting HP piles is
20ft. The height of the piles is 15 from top of the pile to top of the footing. The height of the
water table from the top of the footing is 9 ft as shown in the elevation in Fig. 4. The pile
