Sheet piles to prop up landslide area for now


KUALA LUMPUR: Sheet piles measuring 12m high are being installed by the Subang Jaya City Council (MBSJ) as an immediate measure following a landslide at Lestari Perdana in Seri Kembangan here.

“The sheet piles will be installed along a 150m length and work is expected to be completed within a week. However, this is only a temporary measure as they can only last a maximum of three months,” said Subang Jaya deputy mayor Mohd Zulkurnain Che Ali.

“A permanent wall will be built, depending on the site’s condition and possible risks. The estimated cost is RM4mil to RM5mil,” he said when chairing MBSJ’s full board hybrid meeting yesterday.
