Systems for the subterranean support of underground conduits

A support system for supporting a conduit positioned underground, comprising:

• a section of curved sheet pile adapted to be driven underneath a conduit buried underground, said section of curved sheet pile comprising:
• a body having an upper surface, a lower surface, a gripping edge, a leading edge, and opposing side edges extending between said gripping edge and said leading edge, said body having a body radius of curvature extending between said gripping edge and said leading edge, said gripping edge, said leading edge, and said opposing side edges cooperating to define a perimeter of said body;
• at least one opening positioned adjacent to said gripping edge of said body and extending between said upper surface and said lower surface of said body;
• and
• at least one opening positioned adjacent to said leading edge of said body and extending between said upper surface and said lower surface of said body;
• at least one elongate suspension member having a pile connection end and a beam end, said pile connection end configured to pass through said openings in said curved sheet pile for connection of said elongate suspension member to said section of curved sheet pile;
• and
• at least one beam, wherein said beam connection end of said elongate suspension member is connectable to said at least one beam.
