Did you know that retaining wall design can hold materials in and out? If you work in agriculture you have probably already heard of using retaining walls as a form of storage. For others this it may be a revelation that specialist retaining wall design can be utilized to keep materials in as well as the more traditional idea of keeping mass out. Retaining wall blocks are most recognisable as load bearing walls holding out external ground mass e.g. in a building built against the ground or with a section built below ground level i.e. a basement or as walls that hold back moving earth on a slope. However the agricultural industry saw the opportunity specialist retaining wall design could offer.

The essence of a retaining structure is that it should be strong enough to support a great load of material that is exerting pressure upon it. Poundfield go above and beyond to ensure their products are strong, safe and reliable.

Their L-block units are a particularly strong type of retaining wall design. The shape provides outstanding tensile strength and the units are also made from prestressed concrete further reinforcing them. Prestressed concrete means that the concrete has been specially treated to reduce its natural weaknesses. These units fit together through tongue and groove slots and can be used to build free-standing walls or to used to form part of a building e.g. a storage barn. Loose materials such as grain, soil or silage can then be piled against the wall. There are several other wall options available to suit other uses.
