Chevloc is a highly versatile split faced precast concrete modular system which permits retaining and free-standing walls to be built in a variety of orientations and alignments.

It can follow both concave and convex curves without the need for special blocks or cutting. Irregular changes of direction can be accommodated by mitreing the units using a concrete saw to suit the required angle.

The Chevloc system consists of only two hydraulically pressed units, a base and a standard building block.

The Benefits

Ease of construction
Walls are dry built on a simple foundation without the need for skilled labour and with minimal cutting.

Versatile
Chevloc can be used to construct retaining, free standing and terraced walls.

Chevloc can be used for the facing of reinforced earth systems where poor grade backfill is used in conjunction with specially designed polymer grids which are simply anchored by sandwiching them between the block courses.

Improved resistance to grid pull-out can be achieved by using the blocks in their inverted mode.

Chevloc can also be used for river training works to construct training walls and weirs.

Planters for landscaping and storage bays for loose material are easily constructed using this system.

Design Flexibility
The concept allows muiltiple variations in batter alignment.

Aesthetically Attractive
Chevloc can be supplied in a choice of colour to suit the surrounding environment. Spacing of up to 125mm can be left between the blocks to give visual relief or allow for the establishment of trailing plants.

Choice of Orientation
Chevloc blocks can be used upright, inverted or on end.

Reusable
Chevloc can be used and reused for temporary structures or emergency retention.

Vandal Resistant
Chevloc walls are not easily climbed and the top course can be securely anchored using a thixotropic adhesive.

Installation
Full installation services available from RPC Contracts Ltd. For further information please contact our Technical Department on 01824 709102.

Delivery
Chevloc walling blocks are delivered in pairs for on site splitting.

OVERVIEW

Comprising reinforced precast concrete components specially designed to interlock with each other, the Kriblok gravity wall retaining system enables the rapid construction of stable, attractive earth retention schemes without the need for mortar or special fixings.

The Kriblok system is available in a range of component sizes, to ensure cost-effective solutions for a wide variety of situations.

Each range consists of only two basic components, a header unit and a stretcher unit, with header units available in a choice of lengths.

This, together with the fact that the Kriblok system can be erected to form concave or convex radii as well as internal or external corners using standard components, simplifies both design and specification procedures.

On site, Kriblok units are simply assembled to create a series of interlocking cribs which are then filled with granular free draining material to provide a high performance gravity wall structure.

Simple in concept yet extremely effective in application, Kriblok offers the strength and versatility to cope with virtually all earth retention problems.

OVERVIEW

Rocwall precast interlocking reinforced concrete panels are faced with natural stone.

Rocwall facilitates the rapid construction of both retaining and freestanding walls, in a fraction of the time required for traditional methods of wall construction. There are consequential savings in costs.

The ability to choose the size, type and finish of natural stone facing, gives specifiers great input of the finisheded appearance. This enables a distinctive finish to be created for every project, as well as allowing the specifier to meet local planning requirements.

Handsetting of the stone facing during manufacture provides an attractive random appearance which adds to the aesthetic appeal of every installation.

The availability of parapet units, planters and other complimentary products, ensures that Rocwall can be applied to a wide range of situations.
