How a retaining wall with HOLES is better than one without! This patented design takes advantage of angle-of repose, a shift of center of gravity, as well as proportionally reducing both shear and rotation forces (the more HOLES, the more shear and rotation is reduced). Also minimizes heave and hove from freezing, and drains both internally and externally .
Thank you! Now, if I could find big enough Duplo® blocks, we could REALLY show the local landscapers and Departments of Transportation something.

Glad you like it! We need to get a bigger demonstration, 'tho. Theoretically, the wall can go up vertically a couple of miles without the "valves" (the holes) changing how they push back as well as cantilever into the retained earth. We will work on ten feet or so (I'll have to get REALLY big building blocks).
