STEEL PILES & INFRASTRUCTURE PRODUCTS
Dedicated partner, strongly involved
Dedicated partner, strongly involved
You can rely on SSAB to provide you with first-rate infrastructure products that are responsibly produced and offer great value for money. To us, partnering with customers means committing to prompt delivery and consulting with you during the design and execution stages as needed.
SSAB’s extensive range of infrastructure construction products consists of steel pipe piles and retaining walls for foundations and harbor structures. The company offers also safety barriers systems, trapezoidal sections for bridge girders, a range of steel pipe products for water mains and expandable rock bolts for underground mine and tunnel roof reinforcement.
Versatile range of steel pile dimensions
SSAB’s versatile range of steel pile dimensions enables you to select the optimal size, steel grade and length for your project. Piles are installed with driven or drilled technology and come in diameters of 76.1–1220 mm (3.0–40.0 in.) and thicknesses of 6.3–23 mm (0.25–0.91 in.). SSAB’s steel grades especially for piling are S440J2H and S550J2H.
Retaining walls
Retaining wall structures, Combi wall and RD® pile wall, based on steel piles are often the best solution to replace traditional, labor intensive cast-in-place based retaining wall structures. Combi wall and RD® pile wall have clearly higher resistance against vertical loads than regular sheet pile walls. They also feature excellent bending stiffness and resistance.
RD® pile wall is specially designed for challenging conditions, for instance, for faster implementation of retaining walls and other foundation structures.

High performance RRs® and RDs® micropiles
Higher load-bearing capacity and lower costs
RRs micropile selection includes most of the common RR pile sizes
The excellent properties of the RR® micropiles, such as splicing easily and quickly with an external friction splice as well as other micropile accessories, are utilized also in RRs micropiles manufactured of high-strength steel.
Advantages of the high-strength steel S550J2H in SSAB's RRs micropiles:
By using the higher steel grade S550J2H, micropile’s load-bearing capacity can be added by up to 20 % over that of traditional RR® micropiles. The increased load-bearing capacity of the pile enables decreasing the number of micropiles.
Alternatively, an RRs micropile made of high strength steel can replace an RR® micropile with bigger size. Good example of this is RRs125/6.3 micropile size, which can easily replace micropile size RR115/8.
Design tools
Software for fast and easy design
RRPileCalc is a design program for SSAB's steel piles. Eurocodes as well as National codes and instructions are applied in the end-bearing pile design.PileWallCalc design tool enables easy calculation of cross section properties and bending resistances of the pile walls. The program calculates the bending resistances and normal force resistances of RD® pile wall, Combi wall and Zig-Zag Combi wall.

New mechanically attached rock shoes for RR270 and RR320 pile sizes
New rock shoes enable more flexible operations at site. Mechanically attached rock shoes are attached to piles in site as old welded rock shoes were attached at SSAB factory. This enables more flexible operations especially in projects where the amount of piles may change during execution.
