Abstract
A convertible capping system and methods of use thereof for capping a top portion of a sheet piling wall or other structure. A top panel of the capping system includes a widthwise spaced array of longitudinally extending parallel connection ribs, and defines an initial width at least equal to or greater than an intended final width, whereby a user can cut the top panel down to a desired final width corresponding to the thickness of the wall. A pair of side flanges have engagement features configured to attach to the connection ribs of the top panel after adjusting the width of the top panel, to assemble the capping system. A wave diverter and/or structural reinforcement system can optionally be provided with the convertible capping system or sheet piling wall.
