Retaining Wall Pricing Questions

2-3 Stacking Style and Rock thickness.

Explanation of terms.

Rock Thickness= We can spend extra time finding rocks that are a little thinner or thicker if it will help your rock application. We do charge a little more to spend the extra time so we recommend the regular mix of thicknesses unless you require a special thickness.

Brick Stack= The brick stack takes rocks that are most similar in size and stacks them like bricks, which use the smallest face out. This option is for an application that has the maximum number of rows in a retaining wall and the most even sizes in each row. This is a more expensive way to stack rock since it doesn't use the largest face forward.  However it is a more stable way to stack rock, and the walls using this method will be able to stack the rocks more steeply.

Structural Stack= This stacking style is used where it is required that the wall be steep and as structurally sound as possible. This style requires the rocks to drop in size on each row, giving a very sound rock retaining wall if done correctly. This is not necessary when using rocks in short "decorative only" types of rock retaining.

Max Stack= This is the most economical retaining style. This style requires a very shallow slope, 45 degrees if possible. This style will use the largest face forward and also decrease the size of the rocks on each row as the rows go up the hill.  This type of retaining is more easy to build using a mini-excavator with a thumb.  Skid loaders are difficult to use for this style.

2- Determine Stacking Style (Brick, Structural or Max) No Retaining Max Stack Structural Stack Brick Stack (only needed for retaining/terraces)

3- Determine Rock Thickness (Flat, Regular Mix or Bulky) Regular Mix Bulky Flatter (needed for retaining/terraces and or placement rocks).

4-Find the average VERTICAL height of wall in feet. No Retaining 2 Feet 2.5 Feet 3 Feet 3.5 Feet 4 Feet 4.5 Feet 5 Feet (only needed for retaining/terraces)

This measurement is the actual vertical height needed to retain the terrace or hill.

5-Find the Horizontal Space required, or limited to for the wall, in feet. (recommended to use the same number as the Vertical height)

If you are only selecting a 1 Row terrace, then enter 1 foot for the horizontal space. This means that the showing face of the rock will be tipped into the hill one foot.

No Retaining 6 Inches or Almost streight up and down 1 Foot 1.5 Feet 2 Feet 2.5 Feet 3 Feet 3.5 Feet 4 Feet 4.5 Feet 5 Feet (only needed for retaining/terraces)

 This is the amount of yard that the wall will take up in your yard. (measurement from the front of the bottom rock to the front-top of the top rock).

This measurement helps us find the slope of the face of the wall.  The recommended horizontal space for any rock retaining wall is the same number as the vertical height.  This leaves the wall at a 45 degree angle which really makes it so that the plants can grow between the rocks and glue the rocks together. Erosion will wash dirt to the bottom of the wall every time the sprinklers come on if the plants cant take hold and glue the rocks together.

6-Length of the rock retaining wall or terrace in feet (only needed for retaining/terraces)

7-Desired number of rock rows in the wall or terrace * No Retaining Golden Sunset/Desert Cinnamon Unknown Rows 1 Row 2 Rows 3 Rows 4 Rows (only needed for retaining/terraces)

*For Golden Sunset and Desert Cinnamon boulders in the Brick and Structural Stacking Styles only, you will not be able to have definite rows. These rock colors are more slab like and are not consistent in thickness, enough to count on an exact number of rows. Also Desert Cinnamon and Golden Sunset boulders are so much thinner in shape that it would require 5-10 rows where any other rock would need only 2-3 rows.  Click here for an example of a wall showing one of these colors mentioned.

8-Desired space between the rocks in inches (only from left to right and not bottom to top) (only needed for retaining/terraces)

9- Placement Rocks for around my project/yard.
