Retaining Wall – Westhaven Apartments

This retaining wall had failed due to poor original construction.  It did not have enough rebar to hold a large apartment building and a parking lot.  Some of the previous wall was even constructed with CMU Block which is a big “NO NO” when holding this much weight.  The old retaining had large 2” cracks and split in half and could give at any moment.  This project was an emergency due to the soil and property settling more every year.  We added an extensive amount of rebar when we rebuilt the wall.  This project was completed in 16 days.
