retaining wall alternative
I am looking to build about 30 lin metres of retaining wall on sloping ground from 0 to 1300 at it highest point.
I have had a look at various systems, eg blocks, concrete/timber sleepers, crib walls and it's all pretty expensive even without foundations depending on the system.
Just wondering if any one has done a sleeper type wall with I-beam posts and poured concrete inside formwork placed in between?
Basiscally it would be a concrete sleeper wall, and instead of buying separate concrete sleepers and hauling them up and in between the posts, I would make up some formwork, pop in some reo and pour them in situ.
I can get the posts pretty cheaply and I am looking to mix the concrete in a GMC cement mixer they have on special at the moment at Bunnies.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
