Cantilever retaining walls

Retainer Rock retaining walls

Retainer rock are wet cast concrete blocks that look very attractive.

They can be used in gardens, housing developments as well as commercial civil engineering projects.

Retainer Rock retaining wall come in two textures cobblestone rock finish and a feathered edge smooth plinth finish.

The wall use gravity and cantilever design principles are are easy to install.

King post cantilever retaining walls

King post cantilever retaining walls are ideal for small garden projects as they are very effective in terms of their structural stability with the correct design and easy to install.

In simple terms, they are a structural fence that holds back the earth.

The design is a cantilever. The post is normally a steel column that is encased in concrete or driven into the ground.

Reinforced masonry retaining walls

There are a number of methods to construct a reinforced masonry wall. The Stepoc method has been designed to be economical, fast to build and easy to design.

Stepoc is an ideal solution for retaining walls within buildings and locations where heavy plant cannot access.

We design flood defence wall using Stepoc because the inner core on concrete does not only join the wall to the raft, it seals the block joints from leakage.

Precast L-shaped walls

Precast concrete L shape walls are designed to retain material. However, to resist overturning and sliding with a factor of safety of 2 for overturning and 1.5 for sliding the wall units need to be anchored into a plain or reinforced foundations.

L shape walls are an economical solution for many projects. Having said that we can give you a full analysis of the best type of retaining wall for your project.

Reinforced block cantilever retaining walls

We specialise in the design and installation of reinforced block walls. These are the most economical solution for many applications.

The wall construction is very fast when comparing with traditional construction. The wall is reinforced using bars that thread through the blocks into the foundation. The foundation and the wall act together as a cantilever giving the structure strength and the ability to restrain the retaining material.
