Retaining Wall Systems

AB Retaining Wall System ... A complete Wall System

Allan Block allows you to design retaining walls to meet specific engineering and site requirements. Select the right block for the job; large blocks for major structures, and small blocks for light landscaping.

Benefits
From light landscape terraces to major structural walls, the Allen Block family of products will cover your landscape. Design with fluid curves or string straight lines. Add angles, corners and stairway details. Change the color, shape or size. Allan Block gives you unlimited design options.

Other features include:
 -Simplified Installation
 -Interlocking Blocks
-Strong and Lightweight
-Self-Draining System
-Corners and Capstones

Built-In Set-Back
Allan Block system options allow you to choose a 3 deg, 6 deg and 12 deg setback to meet your site and design requirements. The raised front lip automatically establishes the proper setback. Use the basic gravity wall system for lower all projects. For taller projects use the geogrid reinforcement system.

Engineered for simplicity
Allan Block's built-in features make retaining walls easy to engineer and simple to build. These simple engineering features make Allan Block retaining wall systems the most efficient and reliable products on the market.

Mortarless Construction
Mortarless technology works. Building "flexible structures" with interlocking dry-stacked material provides superior performance over rigid construction technique.

Built-In Interlock
Every Allan Block is firmly locked in place by the patented front lip. No pins, no mortar, no fancy connectors.

Built-In Drainage
The hollow-core design combines with mortarless construction to allow water to drain freely from behind the wall. A vertical "drain field" is formed by the layer of crushed rock placed behind the block and in the block cores. Water moves easily down through the drain field. the dry-stack construction technique allows the water to escape by flowing around the blocks and out the wall face. This built-in drainage prevents any major build-up of hydrostatic pressure.
