Retaining Solutions

Retaining walls designed to perform long term

Crib walls, segmental block walls, gabion walls, MagnumStone, MSE walls, and stone pitching for commercial, civil, and infrastructure projects across Queensland.

Crib Walls

Gravity retaining walls constructed from interlocking, precast concrete components. Filled with free draining material and earth backfill to eliminate hydrostatic pressure behind the wall.

MagnumStone Walls

MagnumStone is a large-format hollow core interlocking concrete block system designed for fast, cost-effective installation on major civil and commercial projects. Each block covers 0.74m² of face area and uses 40% less concrete than solid block alternatives — reducing material costs and transport weight without sacrificing structural performance.

MSE Walls (Mechanically Stabilised Earth)

Mechanically Stabilised Earth (MSE) walls use precast concrete face panels connected to steel strip or geogrid reinforcement layers embedded in engineered compacted fill. The reinforced soil mass acts as a gravity structure, making MSE walls ideal for bridge abutments, road embankments, rail corridors, and heavy surcharge applications where traditional retaining solutions are not viable.

Stone Pitching

Hand-placed stone pitching for erosion protection, channel lining and slope stabilisation. Natural stone provides both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our retaining wall solutions.

Fencepac Retaining designs and constructs soil reinforced earth walls, gravity walls, post and panel walls, and erosion protection structures. Our retaining wall systems include segmental masonry block walls, MagnumStone walls, concrete crib walls, gabion walls, wrapped face geogrid walls, MSE walls, post and panel walls, gabion and mattress erosion protection structures, and stone pitching. We help clients choose the right system based on height, loads, ground conditions, program, and finish.

Fencepac can design and construct retaining walls up to 20 metres high, depending on the wall system, site conditions, surcharge loads, and the available geotechnical information. Every wall is engineered to AS4678 to suit the structural and geotechnical requirements of the specific site.

Fencepac has multiple site crews with the skills and plant needed to install different retaining wall systems safely and efficiently. Each crew is led by experienced supervisors and supported by leading hands, operators, project managers, and contract administration staff who understand how retaining projects run on site.

Fencepac delivers retaining wall services across residential subdivisions, industrial developments, State and Local Government infrastructure, mines, rail, dams, schools, and shopping centres.

Yes. Fencepac is licensed for structural landscaping, which allows us to undertake retaining wall construction across the relevant sectors of the industry.

Send your enquiry through the website, email info@fencepac.com.au or estimating@fencepac.com.au, or call us on (07) 5456 2444. We'll review the project requirements and direct you to the right team member to help with pricing, design, or construction.

Fencepac designs retaining walls to AS4678 and, where required, to the project-specific criteria set by State or Federal authorities. Depending on the wall type and design brief, the design life will typically range from 60 to 100 years.

Yes. Fencepac carries the insurances required to deliver retaining wall work, including Workers Compensation, Public and Product Liability, Contract Works, Vehicle, and Professional Indemnity insurance.

Fencepac delivers retaining wall work with its own full-time team across management, supervision, WHSE, plant operation, and site labour resources.

Yes. Fencepac can provide budget estimates and preliminary retaining wall concepts for early works submissions. That usually includes indicative rates by wall type or height and simple preliminary sections showing a fit-for-purpose solution.
