Gravity Retaining Walls, Palm Beach Home Pros

Each retaining wall is built with different principles. You have the anchored ones that include anchors and how they are included in the structure. Masonry walls are built with the material but mostly with a mix of stones cemented together. In the case of gravity retaining walls, you can use the same options as concrete, stone, and masonry units. However, the way they work and retain soil differs from the rest.

At Palm Beach Home Pros, we love educating you before you build a specific wall. This is because despite their similar purposes, choosing the suitable one for your project is crucial.

In the case of this gravity wall, it retains all the soil and diverts water by relying on its weight. The stability is based on how you build the wall and the entire land and topography dimensions.

They are designed for lateral earth pressure in multiple projects and your usual slopes. This is so they can resist toppling and sliding caused by rains or during specific circumstances.

However, for them to perform well, the right materials are crucial. But above anything else, you want qualified professionals who can ensure the balance in how gravity is key in their strength.

Most people recommend using gravity retaining walls for projects that don’t exceed 3 meters. Nevertheless, we consider this to be an unnecessary limitation. The entire concept of how the type of wall is built refutes this advice.

If you have it built properly and worked with the condition of the land and topography results obtained from tests before the project starts, you can greatly see this wall’s benefits.

Considering it retains soil based on its structure and weight, you get great retention and support for large amounts of soil. Diverting water is also a good feature and benefit of this wall, so there are no problems if you have multiple purposes for it.

However, the result you usually get with these walls is more rustic and traditional. It isn’t considered pretty. Instead, it inclines more to the usual walls you can see on the roads and construction sites.

We can create stunning results for you. However, it isn’t the option you should go for when aesthetics are all you care about.
