Redi-Rock - Retaining Wall SystemRedi-Rock is an innovative, retaining wall system offering significant advantages over traditional construction methods. Redi-Rock’s engineered interlocking blocks are versatile enough to achieve height without compromising on strength. They can be produced off site and ready-to-lay, and have the look of natural stone. With a proven track record in rail applications, Redi-Rock generates savings in several key areas. It is also an environmentally friendly solution as it delivers sustainable benefits. DRY-LAID INTERLOCKING CONCRETE BLOCKSRedi-Rock’s heavyweight concrete blocks are dry-laid with no mortar. This means that Redi-Rock retaining walls have inherent strength but are quick to assemble with no form work or shuttering, no vibrating machinery and minimum foundations. The blocks can be manufactured on or off site and laid in any weather. If greater strength is required, cable, rods or other reinforcements can be added. Savings are achieved through reduced labour costs, less land-take, less risk of project disruption and faster completion. RECYCLABLE RETAINING WALL SYSTEMSRedi-Rock retaining walls are recyclable and relocatable. Blocks are moulded from standard concrete and are available in a range of colours and finishes which replicate natural stone. This means that Redi-Rock retaining walls blend with the local environmental in which they stand without drawing on limited natural resources. There is an additional option to specify an eco-friendly cement mix. The completed retaining walls require minimum maintenance. After the project life has expired, the blocks can be recycled or readily moved to other sites if required. RETAINING WALL SYSTEMS FOR ALL RAIL PROJECTSRedi-Rock’s application in rail projects respects the need to keep both freight and passenger services flowing as freely as possible. Projects are delivered swiftly, reducing down-time and service disruptions. Redi-Rock retaining walls are particularly suited to difficult projects where access and space is limited. The Redi-Rock retaining wall system is ideal for all kinds of rail applications. Benefits include:
