ABSTRACT:
A retaining wall system utilizing a support structure formed from standard concrete Tee forms. The structural members are assembled using post tensioning devices which impart added strength to the component members. Wall can be employed in a tier configuration, can utilize cross tie members, counterbalancing slabs and foot support devices to offset bending moment forces. The base member can be formed in a Tee configuration or as a single slab unit. The invention can utilize continuous footers and retaining flanges for holding the wall segments.
