An embedded retaining wall is a relatively thin structure that’s bending capacity is significant in supporting the retained material. The walls can be made up of steel, reinforced concrete or timber and are supported by anchorages, struts and earth pressure. They can be either temporary or permanent and take two forms: contiguous or secant.
Contiguous walls are made from piles installed in a row giving an earth retention system for dry ground. Secant walls are similar, however, they are overlapped and form and interlock through the excavation which inhibits ground water movement during the process.
