Retaining Wall Construction | San Diego Retaining Wall Contractor
San Diego, California
Concrete retaining walls have been a fundamental element in construction projects in many areas of San Diego for a long time. As flat building lots are now the exception rather than the norm structural retaining walls can potentially add valuable developable area to building sites. Structural retaining walls are typically constructed using one of three techniques utilized locally in San Diego, cast in place concrete retaining walls, CMU block retaining walls, and Shotcrete retaining walls.
- Cast In Place Retaining Walls - More common are cast in place retaining walls. These walls are more common as CMU units limit the placement of rebar within the wall and most substantial retaining walls have a large amount of rebar to give it the strength required. Wood form work is constructed first on one side of the wall, rebar is placed as required by the structural engineer, then the second side of the form work is constructed and concrete is pumped and vibrated into the form work.
- CMU Block Walls - CMU block walls are the simplest walls to construct as no form work is required. Precast concrete block, also known as concrete masonry units, are placed over a supporting foundation, rebar is set at specified horizontal and vertical locations and the CMU cells are pumped with concrete.
- Shotcrete Retaining Walls - The third method is Shotcrete retaining walls. Shotcrete walls are constructed in a similar way as cast in place walls but instead of constructing the second side of the form work a special type of concrete, Shotcrete, is then blown onto the single sided form.
