Core filling retaining wall - pour heights


Recommended Posts

You will need to compact the concrete with a poker which is where it can go wrong.  900mm would be the max I would go to but if 450mm is practical then even better.  Leave for a few days for the mortar to go off before pouring.

That should be a pretty tough wall, as above give the mortar time to go off and bring the level up slowly and evenly - assume you are using a pump so work your way around and bring level up approx 1 foot at a time, this means you can be less harsh with the poking.
