Boundary Retaining Walls Case Study
At our Cardiff site we undertook a major site renovation including installation of a new boundary wall. The site was previously bordered by an earth mound. The solution was to build a 1.8 meter high wall using Stronghold 1800mm blocks in a stretcher bond configuration on a raised footing. A security fence was installed and the earth was moved back against the wall. The mound was then seeded with grass. The result is a secure, space-saving barrier which provides site security

Interior Push Walls Case Study
In our concrete batching area at Cardiff we need to keep some aggregates dry and out of the weather in a large shed. Inside the shed we built a push wall to stack the aggregates against, using Fortress 1600mm blocks in a stretcher bond formation #CaseStudy #InterlockingBlocks

Hanson Aggregates Case Study
Our Fortress blocks have been used extensively at the Hanson Aggregates site on Cardiff docks. Two walls are used to retain large piles of sand where dredgers offload. These walls were constructed using our Fortress 1600x800x800mm blocks in a stretcher bond pattern. Due to the size of the sand piles the bottom row of blocks were secured directly to the dock. A pedestrian walkway and a number of aggregate bays have also been built from Fortress blocks which demonstrates the va

Security Barriers Case Study
A local building firm needed a fast and efficient way of restricting access to a grassed area. To accomplish this we laid a string of our Stronghold 1500mm blocks at 1.5 meter intervals to ensure that no vehicles can get though. As this was near a road we applied reflective tape to the blocks to make them more visible at night. #CaseStudy #InterlockingBlocks
