The document discusses the design of a jacking pit including soil properties, pit dimensions, pressure calculations, and checks for the sheet pile and wailing beams.

The jacking pit has 6 levels with varying depths and a total excavation depth of 6.5m. The effective pit length is 7.5m and width is 4m. The soil is marine clay with unit weight of 18kN/m3.

The document calculates the coefficient of active pressure, pressure due to surcharge and soil, and assumes the sheet pile is simply supported to calculate the maximum bending moment.
