Key Specifications of Cast-In Place Concrete Retaining Walls
​
We take a systematic and professional approach to every rip rap installation to ensure durability, function, and longevity. Our key specifications include:
-
Rock Sizing & Selection
We use high-quality angular rip rap in a range of sizes, chosen specifically for each project based on slope, water flow, and erosion levels.
​
-
Subgrade Preparation
The ground is properly graded and compacted to support long-term stability. When required, we install geotextile fabric to separate the rip rap from the native soil, preventing settlement and washout.
​
-
Slope Design & Placement
All rip rap is installed on carefully calculated slopes using skilled operators and machinery. Proper interlocking placement ensures resistance to water flow and sloughing.
​
-
Drainage Integration
Effective drainage is critical. We assess and incorporate features like swales, pipes, or outlets to manage water and prevent undermining.
​​
-
Environmental Awareness
For projects near water bodies, we follow environmental regulations and best practices to protect sensitive ecosystems while achieving structural goals.
