Gravity Retaining Wall
Gravity retaining walls rely on the weight of the materials to have structural integrity, meaning any type of material can work for building blocks. The flexibility regarding the building blocks presents more opportunities for a project with intricate design features, and allows it to have some playful spirit.
Retaining walls are commonly made of pavers, natural stones or bricks. Taller gravity retaining walls may also need to be reinforced with more substantial materials like a foundation or concrete footing in case the soil under them is too loose to support their weight.
Sheet Piling Retaining Wall
Retaining walls are a very basic solution where you simply drive in thin steel. These types of retaining walls work best in soft soils and can be otherwise unsupportive due to lack of room for installation. Sheet piling retaining walls only work in softer soils with around 1/3 of the wall driven into the ground. If too much earth pressure is present
Cantilever Retaining Wall
Cantilever retaining walls are made of reinforced concrete, and use leverage to hold down the weight of the dirt that’s being retained. Essentially, the base of a cantilever wall is pointed downward so it holds all the pressure from above. These provide a great deal more pressure than traditional walls because they’re able to stick out
You should consider proper drainage when building a retaining wall. Built-up water pressure and creation of ice can have negative effects on the structure.
Anchored Retaining Walls
Retaining walls can have any type of retaining wall as the “frontâ€, however they are additionally supported by cables anchored to the ground behind it. The anchors are pushed into the ground and enlarged by injecting concrete or other mechanical pressures. Anchors add additional strength and will be used in the case that earth pressure is too great.
