Shuttabloc - Concrete Retaining Wall
Precast retaining wall with internal reinforcing system. Poundfield`s unique Shuttabloc concrete retaining wall system has been designed to provide a faster, more economical alternative to casting in situ. Whilst traditional precast concrete units are suitable for retaining bulk materials in many circumstances, some situations require a higher specification – this is where the Shuttabloc comes into its own. The Shuttabloc reinforced precast concrete wall system is designed to withstand significant impact from loading plant or to retain high loads. It provides a faster, more economical alternative to casting in situ.
No on-site formwork, faster installation and a factory controlled finish results in a product that is flexible, cost-effective and designed to exactly the same properties as an in situ wall.
The hollow cores of the precast concrete units are pumped full of concrete once in place resulting in a solid push wall and can be designed and manufactured in a variety of heights (from 3m to 6m tall) and lengths tailored to suit your needs.
We can also supply a range of accessories to be used in conjunction with your wall to maximise its uses: Corner units to achieve a gap-free wall, T-junctions to create bays, and end covers to seal the wall units and finish off the ends.
