Scope Of Work
Installation of a retaining wall to reinforce a steep bluff. The bluff supports a parking lot and swimming pool at a master-planned apartment community.
Application: Installation of a retaining wall to reinforce a steep bluff. The bluff supports a parking lot and swimming pool at a master-planned apartment community.
The Challenge: Access to the installation site and the resulting impact on logistics were the primary challenges, according to Randy Grego, General manager of BC Hardscapes. "There was no access from the front, and not a lot of area to store block and materials, so we brought them in as needed," Grego explained. Mike Stein, P.E., with Shafer, Kline & Warren (SKW), added that the upper portion and lower portion of the wall were each situated on different limestone rock formations.
