The shapes of our retaining wall blocks permit 90 degree corners and curves to be included in designs, which gives designers more options to work with. Creativity and flexibility go a long way for an aesthetically-pleasing retaining wall and our extensive wall block types will help you achieve that.

Shea Concretes new fence and guardrail blocks also provide sufficient options for architects and engineers by allowing retaining walls to follow unique paths.

Economical and easy to install, Shea Concrete retaining walls feature a unique locking system that permits walls as high as 12' without a geo-grid. Each block is made from wet-cast, air-entrained concrete with a minimum PSI of 3,000 for incredible strength and durability that exceeds industry standards. With a standard face size of 48" x 16", place just one block and you have installed 5.33 sq. ft. of retaining wall. And since no mortar is needed, the blocks stack up quickly.

Proper installation procedures for a ReCon retaining wall follow closely those used for most modular, mortarless segmental retaining walls. However, the difference is that ReCon retaining wall blocks are not placed by hand, but with equipment typically owned and used by most experienced retaining wall installers or landscapers.

There are times when unique solutions are necessary on a particular project site. Special procedures such as soil-nailing or veneering in front of H-pile can solve difficult site challenges. ReCon specializes in helping its customers find unique solutions that save time, money and valuable real estate.

Architects and Engineers can look through our database of construction detail drawings, Google Sketch-Ups, design and construction manuals and fence and guardrail block specs to fully plan a retaining wall project. By using the specific diagrams and measurements of each of our concrete blocks, architects and engineers will be able to more accurately design retaining wall layouts. Use the resources below when planning your projects. There are PDF sketchups, google sketchups, dwg files and more.
