RETAINING WALL CONTRACTORS

Practical and cost-effective, permanent tieback, soil nail, and cantilevered pile retaining walls prove ideal when constructing a lasting wall in a cut or partial cut-and-fill scenario, especially when preserving features like roads, structures, or slopes behind the wall is a priority.

Concrete retaining wall contractors recognize the enduring nature of permanent walls, designed to last 50 to 100 years. Rigorous evaluations of the wall environment, including soil and groundwater considerations, gauge the potential for corrosion. Schnabel’s expertise in wall construction ensures meticulous design of tiebacks, soil nails, facing connections, and other details, guaranteeing longevity throughout the wall’s lifetime.

To further fortify the wall’s durability, the facing typically incorporates reinforced cast-in-place concrete, shotcrete, or precast concrete panels. Additionally, the wall facing can undergo various aesthetic treatments, enhancing its appearance and facilitating seamless integration with the surrounding environment.

US 321

Schnabel designed and constructed 15 permanent tieback walls with a total length of over 8,500 ft. for the Tennessee Department of Transportation during the widening of U.S. 321 on the edge of the Smoky Mountain National Park.

The widening of US 321 through several miles of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park just outside of Gatlinburg, TN utilized Permanent Tieback Walls to minimize the impact to the surrounding environment and preserve the beauty of this majestic area. It took a team approach between Schnabel, Blalock and Sons, Inc. and the Tennessee Department of Transportation to construct one of the largest permanent tieback wall projects in the nation.
