Retaining wall against earth pressure
Mechanically stabilized earth retaining wall LIMI is a retaining wall solution made of concrete blocks and rebar steel anchors. The structure consists of concrete blocks, which are anchored to the soil layer behind the retaining wall with densely placed rebar anchors.
Densely installed rebar anchors in the backfill strengthen the backfill, improving its technical properties and giving the wall support against earth pressure. The block wall and the steel tubes that are laid inside the blocks to stiffen the structure enable folds and curved shapes. The structure is full of ingot seams, so it is not sensitive to deformation and compensates for possible uneven or unexpected earth pressure effectively.
Compared to alternative solutions, the LIMI retaining wall is a light and cost-effective solution. The highest recommended wall height is 5.78 meters.
The LIMI reinforced concrete wall is lighter in structure than, for example, a cast-in-place retaining wall structure. The lightness of the structure and the installation speed make the retaining wall very cost-effective.
The retaining wall is laid without mortar from blocks, pipes and steel rebar anchors, which makes installation fast.
The amount of concrete and steel required for a LIMI reinforced concrete wall is considerably smaller than for cast-in-place retaining wall. In addition, the retaining wall structure can be dismantled and reassembled.
Easily folding and curved structures can be constructed with the LIMI MSE retaining wall. The shape can be changed as needed during construction.
The service life of the LIMI MSE retaining wall is determined by the steel rebar anchors used. Typically, steel rebar anchors are hot-dip galvanized, but stainless steel rebar anchors can also be used to maximize service life.
