or wooden. Some cover protection (plastic, tarpaulin, etc) also will be applied (if required) to
avoid slope erosion during construction. Temporary shoring protection shall be designed and
calculated by competence engineer and attach in work method statement that issued to company
for approval.

The installation of temporary support protectors (Sheet piles) must follow the following:
a. Survey and marking
The determination of line shoring protection that will be installed and stack out.
b. The lifting crane must be selected, based on the weight of the sheet pile material to be
lifted. Ensure maximum lifting capacity for sheet pile material is still in covered by service
crane load capacity.
c. Access and work area must be good and wide enough for this type of work including
swing operation.
d. Appointment supervisors should be assigned to the operation. Riggers, signalman and
others must be properly regulated. They should be clearly instructed for the operation.
e. The roughter crane must be parked at a predetermined position. The area for laying the
piles should be selected at an early stage.
f. Ensure the crane and lifting devise has inspected by certified competence persone before
to use.
g. All lifting operations must be supervised by the lifting supervisor.
h. After the sheet pile has been loaded into the HSPD chuck with a crane and pushed at least
3/4 length of the sheet pile into the ground, the HSPD operator will confirm and make
sure everything is in order before giving instructions to the trigger person to release the
shackles. Shackles must be reachable with a man's height.
i. After positioning and verticallity has been checked the reaction stands vertically in the
proposed alignment, 1 sheet of initial pile shall be installed and pressed using the HSPD
pile machine to the required depth. Often in the form of sheet piles are used to provide
the initial reaction force.
