L-Beton Retaining Wall 340 cm – Precast L-Blocks for Demanding Civil Engineering
Looking for a massive, monolithic solution for the most challenging geotechnical and industrial tasks? The monumental L-Beton retaining wall 340 cm with a height of 340 cm and a weight of 2686 kg is a top-tier precast element built to bear giant lateral earth pressure.
Advanced vibropressing and monolithic casting technologies guarantee a smooth surface and prevent micro-cracks in the concrete. The product is highly resistant to aggressive environmental factors (salts, moisture, UV), far outperforming traditional cast-in-place walls.
Technical Specification
| Dimensions (height x width x base) | 340 cm x 99 cm x 195 cm |
| Material | High-grade precast concrete C30/37 |
| Load class (bearing capacity) | 5 kN/m² (standard load capacity – optionally up to 33 kN/m²) |
| Element weight | 2686 kg |
| Reinforcement | Yes (spatial steel reinforcement) |
Intended Use and Application Scenarios
- Stabilization of slopes and embankments: Highly effective securing of terrain differences up to a height of 340 cm.
- Construction of bulk storage bays: Creating durable partitions for aggregates, soil, compost, or industrial waste.
- Retaining walls along driveways: Safe design of underground garage driveways, loading docks, and parking zones.
Key Advantages for the Investor
- Rapid 'dry' stack installation: Precast elements eliminate the need for time-consuming formwork and on-site concrete casting.
- Concrete class C30/37: Maximum longevity, freeze-thaw resistance, and resistance to compression cracking.
- Structural safety: The base width (195 cm) is perfectly balanced for the height of 340 cm, guaranteeing tipping stability.
- Excellent value: Combines an extremely long maintenance-free lifespan with highly competitive pricing.
Expert Opinion on Precast Concrete and Road Engineering – Selecting the correct foundation details for L-blocks of 340 cm height
When designing retaining walls using L-Beton elements of 340 cm height and 2686 kg weight, proper foundation preparation is paramount. At Sorfan.de, we always remind developers that 90% of a retaining wall's stability relies on the ground. We recommend a well-compacted sand-gravel subbase, and a lean concrete base for weak soils. A perfectly leveled base of 195 cm width ensures that the L-blocks will not settle or tilt under the massive lateral pressure of the earth.
Logistics, Shipping and Unloading Conditions
Due to the specific nature of the product, we recommend contacting us at [email protected] to determine the transport costs.
Please provide the delivery postcode and the quantity of L-Beton elements. You can place your order in the online shop and then send the remaining information by e-mail. This allows us to select the optimal transport method and prepare a customized quotation tailored to your order size and investment location.
The shipping cost does not include unloading and positioning of the products – the buyer must arrange this independently. In practice, this means it is necessary to organize appropriate equipment (e.g. crane, telescopic handler, forklift) and a crew that will safely carry out the unloading. The buyer must ensure proper preparation of the ground for positioning the concrete elements (compaction, leveling). Properly prepared and leveled ground is crucial for the stability and durability of the retaining wall.
in case of interest in another load class (e.g. 16,7 kN/m² or 33 kN/m²) please contact us. Within the L-Beton series, various load capacities are available (5 kN/m², 16,7 kN/m² and 33 kN/m²), and our specialists will be happy to advise you on a solution tailored to the technical requirements of your building project.
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
Does the installation of a 340 cm L-Beton wall require concrete foundations?
L-blocks up to 140 cm in height can be placed on a well-compacted gravel-sand bed (prepared stable ground). For higher elements (150 to 400 cm), a lean concrete foundation strip is strongly recommended to ensure perfect leveling and protect against soil settlement.
How much does a 340 cm concrete L-block weigh and how is it unloaded?
A single precast L-Beton element of 340 cm height weighs exactly 2686 kg. Due to this high weight, unloading requires heavy machinery, such as an excavator, telescopic handler, or crane equipped with appropriate lifting slings. Unloading must be arranged by the buyer.
Is the 5 kN/m² load capacity sufficient for aggregate bays?
The 5 kN/m² load class is perfectly suited for standard lateral earth pressure on slopes and smaller bulk bins. If you plan to store highly dense materials or have heavy truck traffic near the wall, please contact us at [email protected] for load capacity options of 16,7 kN/m² or 33 kN/m².
