What happens here
Prepare the site by excavating the area for the retaining wall and the underground water basin. The video implies a significant excavation for the basin and the base of the wall. Ensure the trench for the retaining wall foundation is level and compacted. For the basin, dig to the specified depth and dimensions, creating a stable base for its construction. Consider drainage and soil stability during excavation.
Goal: Excavate and prepare the ground for the retaining wall and water basin.
