ESTIMATION OF THE MAXIMUM BENDING MOMENT OF CANTILEVER SHEET PILE WALLS BY USING MULTIPLE LINEAR REGRESSION ANALYSIS

Sheet pile walls are flexible retaining structures that used to hold the horizontal soil pressures behind them, especially in situations cause stress changes such as excavation. They divided into two cantilever and externally supported. Cantilever excavations with a maximum depth of 6 meters supported by anchors deeper than this. Some values be calculated design sheet embedment bending moment that(Mmax) will occur cross-section wall. There various approaches analytical methods have complex calculation steps determining earth pressures, solving second third-order equations. In this study, Mmax wall penetrates sand is estimated expressions obtained help multiple linear regression(MLR) analysis. The results showed may not achieved only MLR models but polynomial
