Concrete Retaining Walls

Concrete Retaining Walls are regarded as the strongest and most durable type of retaining wall. They are also quite versatile thanks to the availability of many types, shapes, and sizes of precast concrete retaining wall blocks. Alternatively, concrete retaining walls can be constructed from poured concrete, allowing contractors to mold concrete retaining walls in virtually any shape or size. Precision Retaining Walls, based in Little Rock, has successfully completed many concrete retaining wall projects. If you need a retaining wall, we are a name you can trust.

Design and Placement

Thanks to how versatile concrete retaining walls can be, our team has a lot of flexibility in designing a concrete retaining wall. During the design process, we will consider not only the visual requirements of the customer once the job is done, but also how robust the wall needs to be. It is possible for example to include rebar for reinforcement inside the concrete if the volume of the earth being held back and the angle of the slope is expected to exert extreme force on the wall. Regardless of what form the concrete takes, the layout of the wall and placement can be just as important in fulfilling the basic function of holding back a mass of earth. Our team is experienced with many types of layouts and designs, so we can find a solution to fit your needs.

Pre-Cast Blocks

Pre-cast concrete blocks designed specifically for retaining walls are popular for several reasons. Traditional concrete cinder blocks can reduce the materials cost of the project, but also the labor and equipment costs. As the blocks are pre-made, they can be more cost-effective per volume than poured concrete. Naturally, as they don’t require as much pouring and curing during the construction process, a project can be completed far quicker, reducing labor hours. Construction costs are also reduced thanks to not needing as much concrete mixing and pouring equipment. If you want the most cost-effective concrete retaining wall, then a wall made of precast materials is going to be the best option. The benefits don’t stop there though. At Precision Retaining Walls, our supply chain has access to many different designs and shapes, allowing us to build walls in almost any style to suit property.

Poured Concrete

One of the main advantages of poured concrete retaining walls is that they can be constructed for extra strength, especially when rebar and mesh are used to reinforce the structure. However, all the cost benefits offered by pre-cast blocks mean the materials and labor can sometimes work out more expensive and time-consuming to complete. These costs are often outweighed thanks to improved strength. If properly constructed, they can also be more resistant because there are no weak points like there would be between layered blocks.
