project function
82sqm wall,
38m length, 2.0m height
scope
Durawall was engaged to supply and install a 2 metre high retaining wall to the rear of a new luxury home.
challenges
Access to the site was difficult as there was a significant drop to the flood plain below. The water table affected the holes requiring a significant amount of water to be pumped before they could be filled with concrete. Hot dipped galvanised steel posts were used in the construction of the 2.0 metre high wall.
result
The narrow profile of Durawall allowed the owner to maximise the usability of their land to create a level block, substantially increasing their backyard.
