We broke ground on a failed retaining wall in East Asheville. Existing wall is removed and the footers are prepped with proper rebar reinforcement.

Keys to failure:
1. 2 inch deep concrete footer
2. No drainage
3. Steepness of the grade above allowing all water water from the slope to drain directly to the backside of the wall
4. No rebar reinforcement
5. The wall wasn't poured solid with concrete

There are so many components that lead to success on the proper construction of a masonry style retaining wall. Starting from hard virgin soil, the foundation of the wall relies on a concrete footer with an overkill of rebar reinforcement which feeds up through the masonry block wall which is eventually poured solid with concrete. As construction leads on, compaction and proper drainage are key elements. This wall was redesigned up to 12 feet in height with weephole drain pipes placed every two feet at the base of the wall. 340 tons of ABC gravel were compacted in 4 inch lifts(36 compacting lifts)inside to eventually create the foundation for the patio base concrete pour. The veneering of the block was layed in a Fieldstone pattern to match the existing on the house and a flagstone patio with cement joints finalized the project.

Feel free to call us with any retaining wall questions or if you have concerns with an existing wall on your property!

The final Patio joints are going in tomorrow, this project is about wrapped up. On to our next failed wall replacement
