Retaining Wall Playlist - [ Ссылка ]
Today we put up 2/3rds of our massive concrete block retaining wall! These blocks are made at the concrete plant from returned concrete, and weigh 2,400 Lbs. each! They go together using cast-in indexing pins so the wall will go together fairly quickly, but please note — the blocks are far from perfect.
Each block requires a bit of tweaking, and you need to use heavy machinery to place them, but the end result id a super durable concrete retaining wall that is totally vertical! There is no setback with these ginormous blocks!
In our case, this retaining wall allowed us to make our woodshop at least six feet wider tan we could have with a tapered hill in that area, so we gained a good deal of shop space and reduced the lawn maintenance on a steep hill — a win/win situation 😁
The rest of the wall will go up as soon as they make the blocks. It could take a month or more!
