Seating Wall and Pillar Construction

What happens here

Simultaneously with or after paver installation, begin constructing the seating walls and pillars. In the video, workers are actively building a seating wall using modular concrete blocks, with one wall nearly complete and another about to be started. These walls often require a separate compacted gravel base similar to the patio, followed by a level course of block. Lay blocks in successive courses, ensuring each course is level and plumb. Use a masonry adhesive or mortar to secure the blocks together, following the manufacturer's instructions. A masonry saw may be required for cutting blocks to fit ends or corners.

Goal: Build integrated seating walls and decorative pillars around the patio.
