Geogrid retaining wall.
Installed in layers between wall courses and extending into the soil behind a wall geogrid stabilizes the soil and so extends the retaining capacity of the wall.
Adding geogrid to a retaining wall recruits the retained soils as helpers in retention essentially making the retaining wall far more massive than the weight of the block or stone alone.
We have experience creating both permanent retaining wall and temporary retaining wall applications.
