- How to build a steel post timber sleeper retaining wall?
Since you're already at 700mm depth for a 600mm wall, you're giving the posts good anchoring For the base of each post hole, it's best to fill the full depth—including the bottom 100mm—with concrete rather than scoria While scoria is excellent for drainage behind the retaining wall, it doesn’t provide structural support
