Retaining Wall Reinforcement: Techniques That Work

The retaining walls are made with stronger retaining walls and the starting point is the smart methods to reinforce the wall which will sustain the pressure, soil movements and guarantee the long term performance.

Added Strength by Use of Geogrid

Geogrid layers assist in pinning down the wall to the ground behind it and spread pressure and greatly enhance stability on the slanted slopes.

Deep Footings and Appropriate Base Preparation

A small footing and footing reinforcement assist the wall against settling and moving as well as permanent soil swelling.

Backfill and Drainage Interconnection

The use of gravel backfill and tactical drainage ways lowers the amount of pressure on water that ensures that the wall remains strong even when it rains in the rainy seasons of Castro Valley.

By use of the correct reinforcement methods, your retaining wall would be a reliable structure constructed to endure the actual hillside environment.

Knowledge of Structural Load of Retaining Walls

Each retaining wall has a different load, which depends on slope height, soil density, and the slope of the grade. In Castro Valley, the clay-soil is heavy such that it swells during the rainy seasons and contracts during dry seasons, putting pressure behind the wall all year round. Our group considers these conditions along with slope direction and other structures around the area to come up with walls that are capable of withstanding immediate and long term stress.

The most common ones are bulging, leaning, or cracking, which can be prevented through proper engineering. We consider the forces that are pushing against your wall and construct solutions that are up to or higher than safety. Be it the wall is supporting several feet of soil or terracing an area of the garden, we ensure that the wall is strong as well as supportive to stand still and firm.
