Solution: MagnumStone Retaining Walls specified for ease of installation even in limited work areas.
MagnumStone Retaining Walls Specified for Ease of Installation
This soil retention project in Davenport, Florida, posed a challenge due to property line restrictions that limited excavation behind the wall. MagnumStone retaining walls were specified over traditional segmental options for their ease of installation. With a reduced footprint compared to conventional cantilever gravity retaining walls, MagnumStone retaining walls can be built in tight areas with limited excavation space. The use of machinery further enhances safety and expedites the process, enabling the installation of 90 to 100 blocks per day and the completion of the project in approximately three weeks.
MagnumStone is a large block, wet-cast retaining wall system featuring a hollow design. These units are installed with machinery on site and use 40 percent less concrete than solid blocks, offering a more sustainable and cost-effective solution. Delivered ready for installation, MagnumStone facilitates timely project completion and adapts to various retaining wall designs, ensuring optimal performance and results.
County Prestress & Precast supplied 10,000 SF of MagnumStone for this project. Despite the challenge of a limited work area, the erectors successfully installed the MagnumStone to meet the construction schedule.
Project Highlights: The quick and efficient installation of MagnumStone helped project leaders install 10,000 SF of the retaining walls within three weeks.
