Wall Progression and Backfill Application

What happens here

Sam is back on site, showing the completed initial layers of the retaining wall. He explains that the next course of blocks will incorporate a 'grid layer' for structural integrity. A skid steer then delivers and spreads gravel behind the wall for backfilling. This gravel layer is crucial for drainage and stability, demonstrating proper construction practices to mitigate future waste from erosion or structural failure.

Goal: Sam provides an update on the retaining wall's progress, demonstrating the placement of the next block course and the backfilling process using gravel and a skid steer.
