Abstract
This study reviews the theories and modelling methods of the interaction between soil and
the embedded sheet pile structure covering the various responses and performance of both materials
under various conditions. Interaction between soil and the embedded sheet pile structure is important
considering the complex and indeterminate behaviour of both materials which results in non-linear
structural deformation. The study affirms the importance of numerical computational tools in
resolving the complex nature of interaction between soil and sheet-pile. Also, the study considers the
contribution of various soil parameters in the interaction and the extent of response in terms of
behavioure. deformation, stress distribution etc. It is found that the true behaviour and magnitude of
deformation and stress distribution is generally dependent on the model and design technique chosen
and all these in general contribute to the overall performance of both the soil and sheet pile wall.
