How to build a RETAINING WALL that WON'T fall over!

Today we're rebuilding a retaining wall that wasn't built correctly. We're gonna show you how to build a retaining wall that WON'T fall over. It's not crazy complicated, comes down to a few simple factors: 1. Proper compaction of your subgrade 2. Bury a footer course of wall block below grade 3. Install drainage behind the wall so water can escape 4. Backfill with clean stone 5. Use geogrid reinforcement if required by spec 6. Use separation fabric over top your clean stone backfill, to keep topsoil from migrating down into the backfill You follow those steps, you'll have a wall that lasts a long time. The wall block used was Techo Bloc Suprema. https://www.techo-bloc.com/shop/walls... Here's a link to that sling we used to swing that gravel in: https://www.amleo.com/sling-bag-mega-...
