Overview

SIST EN 10249-2:2024 is a European standard developed by CEN that defines the tolerances on dimensions and shape for cold formed steel sheet piles. This document applies specifically to Z-shaped, Omega-shaped, and trench sheet piles made from hot rolled steel strip or sheet with a thickness of 3 mm or greater. It complements EN 10249-1, which covers the technical delivery conditions for these products.

The standard targets general, structural, and civil engineering applications and ensures consistent quality and interchangeability of steel sheet piles across projects. SIST EN 10249-2:2024 supersedes the 1995 edition and incorporates updated requirements on dimensions, squareness, straightness, mass, and interlocks.

Key Topics

This standard covers the following critical aspects of cold formed steel sheet piles:

• Dimensional tolerances:
  • Height tolerances range from ±4 mm to ±10 mm depending on profile size.
  • Width tolerances vary by pile type, with ±2% for single piles and ±3% for double piles.
  • Thickness tolerances conform to EN 10051 requirements.
• Straightness and shape:
  • Controls for sweep and bow (deviations in horizontal and vertical planes) set at a maximum of 0.25% of the pile length.
  • Twisting limits capped at 2% of the length or 100 mm maximum.
• Length tolerance:
  • Standard tolerance of ±50 mm, with options for reduced tolerance upon agreement.
• Squareness and angular deviations:
  • Squareness deviation at ends limited to 2% of pile width.
  • Flange angle tolerance fixed at ±2°, but adjustable by agreement.
• Mass tolerance:
  • Actual mass must be within ±7% of calculated mass, with options for tighter tolerances.
• Interlocks and overlapping:
  • Specifications ensure free play for assembly but prevent disengagement during handling and installation.
  • Verification through sample threading tests is recommended.
• Options available on order:
  • Reduced length tolerance
  • Different flange angle tolerance
  • Reduced mass tolerance

Applications

SIST EN 10249-2:2024 is essential for manufacturers, suppliers, engineers, and contractors involved in the design, fabrication, and installation of steel sheet piles. The standard ensures:

• Accurate manufacturing control of cold formed steel sheet piles to meet construction requirements.
• Reliable structural performance in civil engineering projects like retaining walls, foundations, and cofferdams.
• Compatibility and interchangeability of sheet piles from different manufacturers.
• Quality assurance during acceptance inspections on site or at the workshop.
• Clear communication of tolerances and order specifications between purchasers and manufacturers.

This standard thus supports efficient project execution while optimizing safety, durability, and cost-effectiveness in piling works.

Related Standards

SIST EN 10249-2:2024 should be used in conjunction with these key standards:

• EN 10249-1: Cold formed steel sheet piles - Part 1: Technical delivery conditions
• EN 10021: General technical delivery conditions for steel products
• EN 10079: Definitions of steel products
• EN 10051: Tolerances on dimensions and shape for hot-rolled strip and sheet
• EN 12063: Execution of special geotechnical work - Sheet pile walls and related structures

By aligning with these normative references, EN 10249-2 helps maintain harmonized European practice and supports compliance with national standards across CEN member countries.
