What happens here
The workers continue the construction process, stacking more layers of retaining wall blocks. They ensure that each block is properly aligned and level. Geogrid is continuously laid between specified courses, stretching into the embankment. Gravel is then backfilled onto the geogrid and compacted with a plate compactor to secure the reinforcement and improve drainage. The overall progress of the wall, with its tiered design, becomes visible.
Goal: Progress the retaining wall construction to its full height, incorporating all engineered elements.
