Green Piling designed, supplied and installed steel sheet piling at Weeford Quarry to form a 16.2m long retaining wall to reduce the angle of a slope near a conveyor system and to differentiate between the graded heap and the sand and gravel fill upon which the conveyor stands.

The installation of the sheet piling was designed to retain loosed sand at a 300 slope with no surcharge on the basis that the foundations of the conveyor were adequate.
