Abstract
The present invention relates to a corrugated asymmetrical sheet pile panel. The sheet pile panel is an asymmetrical about the Y-axis. The central section has a channel disposed therein for receiving a stiffening strip. The central section has two extensions, one joined to each side of the central section. Secured to each extension is a leg. The legs extend outward and away from the extensions. On the terminal end of each leg is a connector, where one leg has male connector and the other leg has a female connector. The width of the leg with the female connector is smaller than the width of the leg with the male connector. The difference is the two leg widths create a panel that is asymmetrical about the Y-axis and that is weight balanced about the Y-axis.
