ABSTRACT:
A retaining wall system which provides landscape terraces on the face of the structure. The multi-tier retaining wall system uses a plurality of tieback counterfort elements in conjunction with wall panels specifically aligned to produce terraces for landscaping. The design offers a high degree of flexibility in the sizing and spacing of the tieback/counterfort elements so as to meet site specific geometric and geotechnical conditions while using standard precast concrete components or other materials.
