Lay Subsequent Courses with Geogrid Reinforcement

What happens here

This step involves the repetitive process of laying additional courses of retaining wall blocks, backfilling with drainage stone, and integrating geogrid reinforcement. After each course (or every few courses, depending on the wall height, soil conditions, and engineering specifications), a layer of geogrid is rolled out. The geogrid is a high-strength polymer mesh that extends backward into the backfill, connecting to the wall blocks via their interlocking system. It effectively ties the wall into the soil mass behind it, significantly increasing the wall's stability and resistance to lateral soil pressure. The area behind the geogrid is then meticulously backfilled with drainage stone and thoroughly compacted before the next course of blocks is laid. The geotextile fabric continues to separate the drainage stone from the native soil to maintain optimal drainage.

Goal: Construct the full height of the wall with engineered stability
