Walls by Others
Beware
Cheap Walls Made by Others In Kansas City
Points of Failure
Base: Shallow, narrow, or poorly compacted base causes walls to buckle or fall forward. Drainage: Improper drainage behind the wall will cause the
wall to fail because of hydrostatic pressure.
Leveling: Camel backs will occur throughout the wall if the base block is not properly set and level.
Camel backs are visible. Base layer is not buried. Hydrostatic pressure is not considered in wall design. Weak cuts and stacking. Signs of Poor Craftsmanship
