Double Terraced Retaining wall crashes down- Last day

What happens here

After the initial course, subsequent courses of blocks are laid. On specific courses, geogrid is spread out behind the blocks. This geogrid is essential for reinforcing the wall, especially on sloped terrain. Workers meticulously sweep off any debris from the previous course before laying the next, ensuring the geogrid lays flat and blocks sit evenly.

Goal: Build the wall height and incorporate reinforcement

Tools and materials

  • Geogrid — Reinforcing the wall and preventing soil movement
  • Retaining Wall Blocks Versa-Lok — Continuing the main structure of the wall
  • Rubber Mallet — Gently tapping blocks into place
  • Whisk Broom — Cleaning debris from the top surface of blocks before laying the next course
