Retaining Wall Systems
Stone Strong's engineered retaining wall systems combine structural integrity with aesthetic versatility. Our patented interlocking blocks reduce installation time by 50% while maintaining 100-year durability. Available in multiple configurations, these systems support commercial infrastructure and residential projects with heights up to 51 feet. The integrated drainage design eliminates need for tie-backs in walls under 22.5 feet.
Precast Concrete Blocks
Our precast concrete blocks feature modular designs for rapid installation. The 24-square-foot units enable crews to install 1,500 sq ft daily using standard equipment. Available in 12 patterns including Chiseled Granite and Tennessee Foothills, these blocks offer customizable aesthetics while maintaining structural performance exceeding 4,000 PSI compressive strength.
Gravity Walls
Stone Strong's gravity walls utilize mass and friction for stability without mechanical reinforcement. The 7,600 lb blocks create walls up to 22.5 feet tall while maintaining seismic resilience. This system's simplicity reduces labor costs by 40% compared to traditional methods, with proven performance in critical infrastructure projects like airport emergency repairs.
MSE Walls
Mechanically Stabilized Earth walls combine our blocks with geogrid reinforcement for heights exceeding 50 feet. The system's modular design allows curved configurations while maintaining structural integrity. This solution was selected for Amazon's fulfillment center retaining walls, achieving 8.7m height without tie-backs through optimized mass distribution.
Bridge Abutments
Our bridge abutment solutions integrate with roadway infrastructure while maintaining aesthetic continuity. The system's seismic-resistant design includes settlement gaps and hybrid reinforcement methods. Proven in projects like the Waikato River Bridge replacement, these abutments combine rapid installation with 100-year durability in challenging environmental conditions.
Questions
What makes Stone Strong blocks different from traditional retaining wall systems?
Stone Strong blocks feature a patented hollow design that eliminates tie-back requirements while maintaining structural integrity. The interlocking system with lift/alignment loops enables faster installation with fewer crew members compared to conventional methods.
Can Stone Strong walls be used for both commercial and residential projects?
Yes, our systems scale from small residential walls to massive infrastructure projects. The modular design works equally well for backyard landscaping and 50-foot commercial retaining walls with appropriate engineering.
How does the installation process compare to traditional concrete walls?
Stone Strong systems reduce installation time by 40-50% compared to cast-in-place concrete. A three-person crew can install 1,500 sq ft daily using standard equipment, with no need for specialized formwork or curing periods.
What aesthetic options are available for Stone Strong walls?
We offer 12 standard patterns including Chiseled Granite, Tennessee Foothills, and Fractured Ledge. Blocks can be stained to match specific color requirements while maintaining the natural stone appearance.
Are Stone Strong walls suitable for seismic zones?
Yes, our systems incorporate seismic-resistant design features including settlement gaps and hybrid reinforcement methods. The Waikato River Bridge project in New Zealand demonstrates successful implementation in active seismic regions.
How do Stone Strong walls handle water drainage?
The patented hollow design creates an integrated drainage system that eliminates the need for additional drainage components. This feature was critical in the Leach Botanical Garden project where water management was essential for wall stability.
