A few comments on some comments below: "I can build this retaining wall in 2 days, 3 days, 5 days" , fill in your own number of days. There is even a guy who can do it in 12 hours. My comment: No you can't, go back to your mother and ask for a cookie.
"That retaining wall will rot in 1 year, 2 years etc, etc." No it won't. New Zealand is full of retaining walls build to this system. Some of them are more than 40 years old. Retaining walls must comply with the requirements of the New Zealand Building code. The poles are H5 treated. The boards H4
"They didn't even put drainage in!" Yes they did at 8.15
"They should use bigger machinery" That won't fit on my driveway.
"Why not concrete!" Concrete looks nice when it is new. In the New Zealand climate concrete looks awful after a couple of years. The retaining wall will be in the shade in the winter and will get full of dark mould like this www.google.com/search?q=mould... No thanks!
Place is Napier, Bluff Hill, New Zealand.

I’ve built walls for 40 years, these guys know what their doing. Great drainage, upper slope protection, there’s not really that much pushing on the wall and I’m sure there’s no freeze season. Well done, bravo to the excavator operator 👍

I was wondering if it was OK to simply seal the base of the poles with a little bit of concrete without an anchor point to the foundation ? Does that mean that gravity is sufficient here to prevent the tipping ? Thanks for the feedback

I poured walls back in the early to mid 90's.We used the Advance form panels. We had our own crew that only poured footings,they would dowel them and also tie the rebar on 16 inch centers,vertically and horizontally. We would set the panels,string them, kick them off with long turnbuckles. We had to have many of the jobs pumped because we couldn't pour them off the truck. We could make any wall or basement in 8,10,12,inch thickness. I could pour a retaining wall or basement in the morning and the next day take the forms offs and break the wall tie ends off,then load the panels back on the truck to drive to the next job,We probably poured a hundred basements for new home construction,dozens and dozens of retaining walls as well when i was doing it. We once in fact poured a retaining wall that was about half a mile long in a lake after they lowered the lake for the winter,that sucked lol. That sure was hard work lol.

It's being built in New Zealand. NZ building regulations require the use of H4 treated timber for things like retaining walls. That's guaranteed to last 75 years minimum in the ground. It's not going to rot or be eaten by insects or anything like that. It might fail under load, but that's a design failure, not a material failure.

@SargentandGreenLeaf Год назад
Except that if you were an engineer or construction guy you would know that it won't hold. They have done nothing to tie into the mass of dirt that moved in the first place. The mass that moved will continue to move and the wall will fail over time. The rule for retaining wall is as tall as the wall is, that's how wide you need to dig back, and when you backfill you have layers of geotechnical fabric every couple feet as they fill in back the dirt. So this wall would have like 6 layers of fabric that connect the wall to the underlying dirt behind, making the dirt and the fabric a unit of block itself. The unit of block being like 10 feet wide now.

Do you mean the height of the wall is how deep the posts should go in the ground ++. The last thing you want to do is dig back into the bank further than you have to as you will loosen it and loosen the original ground. This is engineered wall which would engineered to last 50+ years. The contractors know they are doing and have obviously done it before. The main thing is to make sure it has good drainage do water doesn't sit behind the wall and build up behind it.

There is no need for drainage if the structure is permeable (here through the plank gaps, it's not a concrete or masonry wall).

@@handyscapersllc The wooden retaining walls in New Zealand have a life span of 40-50 years. The timber is tanalized and desings above 1.5 meters need to have a consent and need to be designed by an engineer. The poles are 5-6 meter drilled into the rocky ground and encapsulated with concrete. They know what they are doing here. I also had the option for a concrete wall, but the climate in New Zealand makes it that withing 2-3 years the black algea and mould start to grow on the concrete.

Always people underestimate the immense forces of a retaining wall. I was expecting the usual block wall (which holds back nothing but looks good). It all depends on how far the log is set into the ground. Seems a bit doubtful to me. 25 years will soon come around.

Wood will outlast steel all day long up to 60 years or more if properly treated

26 days for a project that could be done in 5 or 6 and with better materials...just the labor of 26 days alone can pay for the whole project and with concrete and staggered retaining walls to create planters and levels of resistance. those wood beams will last 20 years ...needing to do it again concrete lasts 200 years easily if done properly and in a third of the time.

I think 5 days for a "staggered retaining wall" out of concrete blocks is quite optimistic. Besides that, this is build in a earthquake prone area. The concrete blocks would fall apart with a 6 Richter quake, leaving the road above on my driveway. The poles are drilled 5 to 6 meter in the ground. Left to the driveway it goes further down. I think the guys who build it did a great job.

@@simcaclub you have never seen the power of a few Mexicans with an excavator 🤷🏻‍♂️ concrete is a better material than wood beams and planks when it comes to earthquakes...ask any civil engineer and architect which one is safer ✌🏻

I think 26 days is too long but nochance in hell 5 days excavation and holes will take atleast that

There are only two types of retaining walls: 1) Retaining walls that have collapsed, and, 2) Retaining walls which have yet to collapse. Always keep these two types in mind when buying property. Because there are no retaining walls which do not collapse. Period.
