A "Gravity Wall" is a type of retaining wall designed to hold back soil and other materials using its own weight. These walls are typically made from heavy materials like concrete or stone, which provide the necessary mass to resist the lateral pressure exerted by the earth behind them. Gravity walls are often used in landscaping, road construction, and other civil engineering projects. The design of a gravity wall relies on its stability and strength, ensuring it can withstand various forces, including water pressure and soil movement. Proper drainage is essential to prevent water buildup, which can weaken the wall's effectiveness. Commonly, drainage systems are integrated to manage water flow and maintain the wall's integrity.
