How to Build a Retaining wall (and why they Fail)

What happens here

This video provides an in-depth analysis of common reasons why segmental retaining walls fail, such as the use of hollow blocks, inadequate pinning systems, insufficient drainage aggregate, and poor compaction. It contrasts these flawed installation methods with best practices, including using solid blocks, mechanical pinning, proper drainage with aggregate, and thorough compaction. The video also serves as a guide for landscape professionals on how to educate clients about these critical differences to secure projects based on quality rather than just price.
