European Retaining Wall Solution for Engineers, Planners and Architects

With ver­i­fied stan­dards and ded­i­cat­ed soft­ware sup­port, re­tain­ing walls can be de­signed ef­fi­cient­ly. Dif­fer­ent var­i­ants can be quick­ly com­pared, and fea­si­bil­i­ty can be as­sessed ear­ly in the project. Sup­port from Easyblock en­gi­neers provides ad­di­tion­al guid­ance through­out the en­tire pro­cess.

Efficient Planning

  • Pre-plan­ning with con­fig­u­ra­tor for typ­i­cal walls The on­line con­fig­u­ra­tor allows ef­fi­cient pre-plan­ning of typ­i­cal walls in­clud­ing block type and quan­ti­ty cal­cu­la­tions. Sup­port is pro­vid­ed by your lo­cal Easyblock part­ner.
  • Geo­tech­ni­cal soft­ware for struc­tur­al de­sign For en­gi­neered projects, the Easyblock sys­tem is ful­ly in­te­grat­ed into geo­tech­ni­cal de­sign soft­ware and sup­ports project-spe­cif­ic struc­tur­al de­sign cal­cu­la­tions.
  • Cross sec­tions and CAD / 3D Data Pre­de­fined wall struc­tures and stan­dard cross-sec­tions with dif­fer­ent heights are avail­able as CAD data and can eas­i­ly be in­te­grat­ed into plan­ning or ex­ist­ing projects. This en­sures ac­cu­rate and clean plan rep­re­sen­ta­tion.
  • Easyblock ten­der doc­u­men­ta­tion Ready-to-use ten­der texts are avail­able for down­load and in­clude a clear sys­tem de­scrip­tion for bill of quan­ti­ties and ten­der doc­u­men­ta­tion.

Benefits for your end customers

The flex­i­ble con­struc­tion meth­od allows the re­al­i­za­tion of cus­tom­ized wall con­fig­u­ra­tions. From pre­cise­ly fit­ting cor­ners to in­di­vid­u­al curves and stepped tran­si­tions, the sys­tem offers ex­cep­tion­al ver­sa­til­i­ty. Wall heights from 40 cm to well over 10 me­ters can be achieved. Easyblock is a Eu­ro­pe­an li­censed prod­uct de­vel­oped in Austria and proven through­out Eu­rope for qual­i­ty, du­ra­bil­i­ty and de­sign flex­i­bil­i­ty.

Benefits in detail

  • Wide range of applications
  • Natural stone aesthetics
  • Flexible design options
  • Fast and flexible construction
  • Direct delivery to the construction site
  • Dry installation
  • Structural reliability

Detailed technical documentation

The tech­ni­cal guide­lines in­clude doc­u­ments pro­vid­ing an over­view of the block sys­tem, the con­struc­tion steps for re­tain­ing walls, and the dif­fer­ent wall con­fig­u­ra­tions, as well as struc­tur­al de­sign schemes for re­tain­ing walls based on the geo­tech­ni­cal pa­ram­e­ters used in the struc­tur­al de­sign.

Configuration Design

Dif­fer­ent com­bi­na­tions of wall types, ter­rain and load­ing types, and soil types re­sult in var­i­ous re­tain­ing wall con­struc­tion de­signs. These de­signs de­fine the pos­si­ble re­tain­ing wall heights as well as the re­quired block types for each row. For re­tain­ing walls, con­struc­tion var­i­ants are avail­able both with and with­out a con­crete foun­da­tion.

Example configuration design - Soil type silt

Typical section

For each soil type and load­ing con­di­tion, typ­i­cal cross-sec­tions il­lus­trate the ba­sic lay­out of the re­tain­ing wall on site. For grav­i­ty re­tain­ing walls, two stan­dard op­tions are avail­able: one with a con­crete foun­da­tion and one with a crushed, com­pact­ed stone foun­da­tion. Geogrid-re­in­forced re­tain­ing walls are shown with a crushed stone foun­da­tion only.

Construction steps

Il­lus­tra­tions pre­sent the con­struc­tion steps for build­ing a grav­i­ty re­tain­ing wall or a geogrid-re­in­forced re­tain­ing wall, high­light­ing the key as­pects that must be con­sid­ered dur­ing in­stal­la­tion.

Wall layouts

Il­lus­tra­tions of the dif­fer­ent wall con­fig­u­ra­tions dem­on­strate the con­struc­tion pos­si­bil­i­ties for ver­ti­cal and in­clined walls, such as cor­ners, curves, and stepped sec­tions. Each con­fig­u­ra­tion re­quires spe­cif­ic block types ar­ranged in de­fined lay­ing pat­terns.

Optimized cost efficiency

The Easyblock sys­tem en­ables ef­fi­cient project man­age­ment with clear­ly cal­cu­la­ble costs and high mar­gins. Op­ti­mi­sa­tions in pro­duc­tion, han­dling and re­source use re­sult in a sig­nif­i­cant eco­nom­ic ad­van­tage over con­ven­tion­al re­tain­ing wall so­lu­tions.

More projects in the same amount of time

Fas­ter con­struc­tion en­ables more ef­fi­cient use of con­trac­tors’ time and re­sources, lead­ing to high­er prof­it­abil­i­ty.

Margin and cost structure

The sol­id cal­cu­la­tion ba­sis is cre­at­ed by re­duced labour hours and the elim­i­na­tion of ad­di­tion­al equip­ment costs – a small ex­ca­va­tor is suf­fi­cient for the en­tire con­struc­tion. This re­sults in a cost and time ad­van­tage over con­ven­tion­al con­crete walls and gabions.
