Safety first!
Make sure you are wearing appropriate safety protection throughout the entire process.
The construction of a retaining wall should always be done in conjunction with a structural engineer.
Each project will have its own complexities and challenges and it is worthwhile consulting a structural engineer as they also have public indemnity.
Construction
The construction of retaining walls is often very similar to brick walls.
Retaining walls may be thicker and have added integrity using steel rods bedded into the wall footings.
Retaining walls can be built in brick, stone or wooden sleepers.
