Verti-Block Concrete Block

Function

Verti-Block is perfectly proportioned for popular types of civil engineering & landscaping projects, including gravity walls up to 4.3m high — even higher when reinforced. Its hollow design makes it affordable and easier to handle than solid blocks. Plus, Verti-Block is less labor intensive than small, hand-laid blocks and offers a more practical solution than a cast-in-place retaining wall.

Applications

Perfect for landscape projects big and small

Verti-Block is ideal for a variety of landscaping projects including residential communities, commercial campuses, schools, parks, back yards, and more. Able to accommodate winding landscapes and even tight curves, Verti-Block is designed to add interest to any landscape while securely retaining earth. 

Consider Verti-Block for applications such as:

• Gravity walls
• Reinforced geogrid walls
• Terracing
• Plantable retaining walls
• Base for fencing or railings
• Property dividers

Advantages

Unique size and design – a mass hollow block measuring 610mm (h) x 1200mm (l) x 910mm (w), Verti-Block is perfectly proportioned for soil reinforced and gravity walls. The range offers a variety of shapes, including corner blocks, to accommodate for all civil engineering & landscaping needs.

Strong and versatile thanks to its interlocking connection design, Verti-Block units ensure a secure fit. It also ensures that just the right amount of crushed stone is used as fill as it interlocks, creating a continuous mass for greater strength.

Easy installation – blocks can be moved and put into place with smaller equipment; there’s no need for heavy machines like a crane. The interlocking connection design increases placement accuracy, ensuring strength and an exact installation every time.

Engineered for strength – the hollow nature of Verti-Block improves its ability to retain earth, even in poor soil conditions it can be stacked higher than other blocks with or without the use of tiebacks or geogrids.

Cost effective due to its hollow design, Verti-Block is lighter which lowers labour, equipment and transportation costs. It’s quick to install and more cost effective than solid block options. Internal drainage through the block’s infill means no over-or under-excavating because additional crushed stone backfill is not required.

A look like no other - Verti-Block is a popular favourite for its rockwork appearance. It makes a finished wall appear more like stacked stone. Plus, it is easily stained to complement its surroundings with a beautiful, weather and UV-resistant finish.

Installation

Blocks can be moved and put into place with smaller equipment; there’s no need for heavy machines like a telehandler or crane. The unique interlocking connection design eliminates placement error, ensuring strength and an exact installation every time.
