Draining the water is absolutely critical on a retaining structure like this. Failure to account for the water could pretty much ruin everything, especially in terms of creating a stable house pad. This drainage system was engineered by Harvey Engineering and and gives us a permanent solution. If you are wondering why we need these huge wall, please watch this • Geotechnical Report: S...
We'll be showing nice close ups of the entire wall and retaining system once it is 100% done!

As someone who has a engineering degree, and works for a general contractor that has done work for heavy industry, I don't think you or your engineers could have done a better job. You spend the money needed to assure your wall will last a long time but saved money on backfill compaction because it wasn't necessary to achieve 95%.Its awesome to see when engineering and construction work together to give the best result at the best price. Great work, and I look forward to more of these videos.

Great and amazing. Only issue is covering the rock with filter fabric. I’m a master drain technician here in Vancouver Canada, where it rains for 80% of the year. On houses where we do full perimeter installations we never install filter fabric directly over the 3/4” clear crush rock. The fabric will clog overtime, leaving your expensive drainpipe project inept of performing its duty. Instead, we do line the trench vertically if we feel the soil conditions are high in clay, and if the soil that is being backfilled over the rock will be high in clay, we simply just replace it 100% with gravel all the way up to the top. It costs more of course and this is something that we need to sit down and talk to the customer about and how they want to go about it. If the soil is good native soil we backfill directly over the gravel. It’s the same reason you never put a sock over a drainpipe. We’ve gone to inspect our systems installed over the years, using the method above where you backfill directly over the rock, and have found either little or no sediment or dirt inside the perimeter pipe, the drain rock is your “filter fabric”.

You are the man on the concrete portion of this project! And I agree with much of your procedures on your drain/backfill behind the wall but there are a couple of improvements you could have used to make this part of your build even better. First of all your drain rock is best used when it is completely wrapped with the filter cloth and also using a double drain pipe is insurance that you will NEVER have an issue with the drain becoming clogged. Second, I like to use a sock of filter fabric over the pipe also as a last line of defense to keep out the fines from the drain pipe! 3rd, the dimple barrier should go all the way down to the pipe and that company has a bottom layer which attaches to that pipe to directly drain the water which flows down the dimples to the bottom. place clean out 4th, so after the dimple material is applied, pipe connected the widest length of filter fabric is laid out and the the gravel applied on top of it. Many of us glue the filter fabric together so that the gravel material is completely surrounded. 5th, clean out risers at some corners risers to allow for flushing out of when it finally does occlude. I agree with your rock against the wall for the reasons you state. Filter fabric and the rock are your friends Not even sure you need to backfill with native soil that requires compaction.... just the drain rock

Very nice video and great job on that wall. The basalt is actually screened at least twice. If it only went through a two inch screen it would contain fines. So it had to go through a two inch screen to maximize the size of the rock to two inch. And then it had to go through another screen (probably 3/4" inch) so the fines and all rock up to 3/4 inch would then produce 3/4 inch minus which is great for doing final roadway before paving and accepts compaction well. The remaining rock is then 3/4 inch to 2 inch with no fines which is great for drainage rock. Or at least that is what my experience is. Great series.

Filter fabric on top of rock helps also. Cold joint between wall and wall at key way often porous also. Nice show.

That is interesting about the storm drain connection for the water. I built a similar spec in Washington State, the west side, and they required many catch basins and said that the main goal was to keep runoff and storm water onsite as much as possible. The overflow went to the storm drain but their hopes were to catch and keep the water onsite and then have it slowly drain from the basins into the soil onsite.

In our area we have conveyor belt trucks too, albeit they are stationary once they set up on site. They have two telescoping belts that also rotate 360 degrees from where they mount on the truck. They place quite a variety of materials, crushed rock for drain tiles, pea rock for under slab radon mitigation systems, concrete into wall forms, sand... etc. They are a very handy and precise method of placement. Also, love that you are using a water management system against the wall instead of waterproofing. 👍🏼

Great job as always! I love watching you guys work and hearing the lowest level of detail that I could never have learned except I worked on construction projects for years!

This is fun to watch. It's finally starting to come together. At least for a non-construction minded person.

Watching these videos makes me appreciate living in the flat prairie where we only get an average 13 inches of precipitation in a year. None of these headaches.

Boo on metric! Pretty sure the last war the US won was while using the US SAE and english units system. I'll use metric when the US military can win a damned war using metric. Until then, it's for l-o-s-e-r-s.
