Benefits of Using Precast Concrete Retaining
Walls

• A retaining wall is a protective structure
  designed and built to define exterior sections of
  a property and hold back loose soil. It is
  designed in such a way as to withstand lateral
  pressure exerted by soil or other material that
  are held by the wall. At Nilex, we take pride in
  the production of precast concrete blocks that
  are extremely practical and can be used to
  enhance the value of your property and give you
  that extra security to safeguard your family and
  your property. A variety of materials can be used
  to build retaining walls, but precast concrete is
  the preferred choice because of the many
  advantages it offers.

Quick Construction

• As the name suggests, a precast concrete
  retaining wall is constructed using concrete
  blocks that are precast. They are not poured
  on-site in a traditional fashion. They are
  manufactured in a facility which is
  temperature-controlled. Then they are shifted to
  the project site for assembly. Assembly of these
  blocks is simple and does not require highly
  skilled workers. Wall panels are simply lifted
  into place. After this, concrete caps are placed
  over the support posts to cover the opening and
  the wall is completed.

Cost Effectiveness

• It is critical to understand that molds for the
  precast concrete blocks for retaining walls can
  be reused over and over again. They can be reused
  up to 50 times. This helps in cutting costs which
  are eventually passed on to the consumer. Also,
  because of the way they are made, the walls are
  long-lasting and durable. This results in minimal
  maintenance costs when compared to other
  retaining walls.

4
Precision

• As the precast block retaining wall is prepared
  in a controlled facility, it is simple to achieve
  precision in quality and specifications. There is
  zero waste produced on-site as there is no
  pouring of concrete for construction. The
  prepared walls are just lifted into place and not
  constructed. Traditional construction methods
  will involve wastage which is completely avoided
  in the use of precast blocks.
