Have a good day,

Mathias.

Use frame 2d structure type.

Sheet pile as a regular bar with a section of 1m width , so you get the results /meter

use bar elastic ground from Geometry/additional atributes.

2 types of ground

1-where there is soil on both sides , divide the pile bar and set the spring value  and assign to the corresponding bar lenght

2- upper part with soil on one side only , the same , but use the uplift on the correct direction on the unidirectional tab.

Apply the soil loads on each side .

Also apply a vertical support on the pile base to avoid instability warnings

Hello , @mathias_peron 
I would suggest to use this software it will give you best result 
and as @Rafacascudo mention that you could do it in robot  
but i still preferred to do it with a software that is interested in this field 
you can  add a construction stage with it and it very easy to use 
the soft name is Deep Excavation Software
