FAQs

  • What kind of infill do I need for the blocks?

    The blocks should be filled with material as specified by the engineer: garden soil, clean sand, gravel or concrete (reinforced if needed). Low garden walls that are meant to be plant supportive should be filled with the best garden soil available.

  • Does the block infill improve stability, and if so, how?

    Gravel is heavier than garden soil and will also interlock the blocks better on the vertical plane, thus gravel infill improves stability considerably.

  • How do Terraforce retaining blocks interlock?

    On the horizontal plane, the blocks interlock via the convex and concave shape of blocks that interact with one another. On the vertical plane, interlocking strength is gained by the block infill which functions like an interlocking core. Infill materials such as coarse gravel or concrete obviously have a higher core strength than sand or garden soil. No pins or interlocking lips are involved that might interfere with versatility in alignment and inclination.

  • Does the choice between round face and straight face influence stability?

    No, stability is not affected. However, poor construction techniques and cost-saving maneuvers will. This is where you can trust The Block Makers to deliver on quality workmanship.

  • Can Terraforce concrete retaining blocks be dismantled and re-used?

    Yes they can, and on many occasions the blocks have been used for temporary installations.
