Production and supply of welded tubular piles and sheet piling up to 2520 mm in diameter for the construction of modern hydraulic port structures erected in the Far North and Arctic regions

A number of large hydraulic port structures (sea terminals) unparalleled in world practice are being constructed on the territory of the Russian Federation. A distinctive feature of these objects is their location in the Far North and the Arctic. One of the most important elements of the structures of berths and shore fortifications of port hydraulic structures are piles and welded tubular sheet piling (pile products). This article examines the production and supply of pile products with a diameter of up to 2520 mm, a wall thickness of up to 40 mm and a length of up to 75000 mm; analyzes the requirements for products operating in complex topographic, geological, hydrological and climatic conditions; and notes the need to harmonize and update the federal regulatory documentation regulating technical requirements for both pile products and the pipes used to manufacture them.
