Install Subsequent Step Frames (2 & 3)
At 0:35 in
These steps will be super important
What happens here
The process is repeated for the second and third steps. New 4x6 pressure-treated lumber pieces are placed to form the next riser and step frame. These are secured to the adjacent retaining walls using lag bolts or screws as appropriate, and also fastened to each other to create a stable frame. The areas behind the risers are then backfilled with gravel using a shovel to provide stability and support. Each new frame is checked for level and then anchored to the ground with additional half-inch rebar stakes, driven through pre-drilled holes.
Goal: The creator continues the process by installing the second and third step frames, attaching them to the retaining walls, backfilling with gravel, and securing them with rebar.
