8 March 2011 – Over the last 30 years, retaining wall failures and performance issues have caused billions of dollars in damages, legal costs and lost revenue. Many of these losses could have been avoided had a managed earth retention program been implemented or even simple inspection and maintenance procedures been followed. In nearly 20 years of research and experience designing, constructing, evaluating and repairing retaining walls and slopes, I have learned that most major problems are preventable. Proper management during the design and construction phase, along with a disciplined inspection and maintenance program after, will significantly reduce the risk of damages, losses and business interruption associated with retaining wall performance issues.
Whether you are a Designer, Contractor, Local Government, Property Owner, Manager, or Developer, we can tailor a program to guide you through the pitfalls associated with earth retention. Don’t let small issues turn into major problems. Call or email us today for a no-obligation consultation or visit us at www.Wall-Eval.com for more information.
