Contech offers economical and effective steel retaining walls that are easy to install in difficult or restrictive conditions with a lower initial cost. Our products offer a long service life in a variety of applications.
The Contech ANCHOR WALL system is the first all-steel approach to construction of shoreline walls. It gives you all the components needed to design for structural adequacy and efficiency.
Compared to conventional bulkheads, ANCHOR WALL offers unique economies and aesthetics ... maximum strength-to-weight ratio, design flexibility, best corrosion protection for freshwater applications, specially designed trim and stiffening members for concealing fasteners and more. Contech Metric Sheeting forms the face of the ANCHOR WALL system and is the barrier between the water and soil. Tight interlocks reduce water infiltration and soil exfiltration. The sheeting is installed using vibratory hammers. In less difficult soil conditions, sheeting may even be pushed into position using a backhoe bucket. Long-term durability is provided by using zinc-coated steel or ALUMINIZED STEEL Type 2. Tight interlocks, high section modulus factor, cost-effective gauges and widths and the availability of shop-applied corrosion protection systems make Metric Sheeting the designer’s choice where durability and aesthetics are important.
Contech Bin-Walls are a system of adjoining closed faced bins that are each 10-feet wide. They are composed of sturdy, lightweight steel members that are easily bolted together at the job site. Backfilled with reasonable care, they transform the soil mass into an economical gravity-type retaining wall. Because this unique design allows the Bin-Walls to flex against minor, unforeseen ground movements that might damage or destroy rigid-type walls, they have been recognized worldwide for over 60 years as economical and effective retaining walls.
Bin-Walls are easy to install in difficult or restrictive conditions, have a lower initial cost and reduce maintenance expenses. They also have greater strength and stability, are installed without expensive equipment and can be rapidly assembled with unskilled crews. Contech Bin-Walls are primarily used to:
Gain right-of-way on highway and railroad projects by either supporting part of the road or holding back an encroaching slope
Create usable, flat areas on municipal, industrial, and commercial sites that otherwise would be wasted slopes
Protect against shore or bank erosion
Build breakwaters to protect dock areas from wave action
Enlarge grade-separated highway or railway rights-of-way
Prevent erosion under bridge abutments
Provide wingwalls on bridge abutments
Create blast walls for protection at military and industrial sites
