The AZ series - a combination of a section with extraordinary characteristics and the proven qualities of the Larssen interlock
Advantages:
an extremely competitive section modulus / mass ratio
increased inertia, reduces deflection and allows high-yield steels to be used for the most economical solution
large width resulting in good installation performance
good corrosion resistance - the steel being thickest at the critical corrosion points
The essential characteristics of the Z sheet pile are the continuous form of the web and the specific location of the interlock symmetrically on both sides of the neutral axis. Both aspects have a positive influence on the section modulus.
