Selecting the Proper Retaining Structure
The right type of retaining structure will not only look beautiful, but will also provide you with lasting protection and soil containment where you need it. Whether you’re performing significant grading or simply looking to open a right-of-way and more space for your project, turn to Superior Foundations.
We can construct many types of retaining structures, including:
- Gravity: A retaining structure that relies solely on its own weight to stand up.
- Sheet Pile: A structure that is generally used in tight spaces and soft soils. Usually made of wood, vinyl, or steel planks that are driven into the ground.
- Cantilevered: A structure constructed from either mortared masonry or steel that is cast in concrete for reinforcement. They cantilever loads to a structural footing that converts horizontal pressures behind the wall into vertical pressures to the ground below.
- Bored Pile: A structure is constructed by boring numerous piles into the soil to form a wall with tremendous strength. Depending on project requirements, a bored pile retaining structure may require reinforcing beams, earth anchors, or soil improvement operations.
- Anchored: A retaining structure that utilizes cables or other stays anchored into rock or soil behind the retaining structure. Performs extremely well under high loads.
Before Superior Foundations analyzes and designs a retaining structure for use, our experts will analyze the job site conditions to determine what type of retaining structure is suitable for the conditions. We then engineer every retaining structure to ensure that it can withstand the loads that are above and behind them.
