The Most Frequently-Asked Questions about King Post Retaining Walls - and Their Best Answers

submitted on 5 September 2021 by jpconcrete.co.uk
Most contractors and builders will already have a fair idea of the benefits brought by king post retaining walls. Amongst the different kinds of retaining walls you can use, king post retaining walls made with precast concrete are some of the most feasible components you can maximise. The good news is that the installation of king post retaining walls is relatively quick and easy, and they are a more affordable option for retaining walls compared to other options. But even if you have already decided to use the king post retaining wall for your commercial or industrial property or a road or motorway project, you may have specific questions about how best to install the system - and how you can get the proper sequence for installation, too.

Here, then, is a list of the most frequently asked questions about king post retaining walls – and their best answers.

What are the applications I can use for king post retaining walls?
The quick answer is that you can use king post walls for various purposes and applications, but most people use them for installing and creating flood defence walls or the retention of embankments. A king post retaining wall system is the most common retaining wall system used throughout the United Kingdom and other countries. But since they can come in any size or specification, you can use them for a wide range of projects.

What are the main benefits of king post walls?
There are a host of advantages brought by king post walls if you decide to use them for your project. It includes their fast manner of installation that doesn't involve extensive labour or manpower. But another significant advantage of king post walls is that they are more affordable than other options for wall-building. Moreover, the process of constructing the walls is even easier because you can choose them in various sizes and widths, which offer even more flexibility and adaptability.

What sizes can I choose from?
It's important to note that since you can use king post walls for a variety of purposes and projects, many manufacturers and suppliers have made them available in different sizes. The panels have varying thicknesses, and it's not a problem to select the ideal size you need for your requirements. Most panels available today can come between 100 millimetres to as much as 180 millimetres in thickness. You can also opt for thicker concrete panels for your king post walls that go up to 280 millimetres. You can also choose from varying heights that range from 1 metre to 1.2 metres to as high as 1.5 metres.

If the panels available are not high enough, it’s not a problem to place one panel on top of another until you have your preferred wall height.

How can I have them constructed?
There is a particular sequence in terms of the construction of your king post wall system, but it isn't that complex. The sequence begins with the formation of a concrete pile, followed by the insertion of steel posts onto the concrete. Once you have inserted the posts, you can have them assessed for alignment, evenness, and verticality, and you can then have the panels installed when the concrete hardens.
