ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a system of construction elements for the erection of plant-accommodating, slope-retaining walls comprising L-shaped longitudinal elements arranged in multilevel relationship, having a horizontally extending base plate portion and an upwardly extending railing portion; and sectional support elements acting as vertical spacers for the longitudinal elements extending horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the longitudinal elements and having upper and lower seating surfaces adapted for communication with the base plate portion of the longitudinal element; wherein a slope-retaining wall formed from the L-shaped longitudinal elements and the sectional support elements capable of dividing shearing forces acting on the wall vertically and longitudinally so that the wall stands erect, retains a slope surface and provides areas for the accommodation of plants, small foliage or the like.
