How much you charged for that retaining wall👀
Love how you all tied in the foot to the wall and poured it all together as one that baby is strong as funk
Yes sir of we can pour Monolithc we do.. Appreciate the comment 👍🏾👍🏾
Should have battered the wall backwards towards hill. Never any pressure on the wall. Could have used concrete block with rebars cheaper and faster.
Anyway nice job.
Appreciate the comment 👍🏾👍🏾
This is our new favourite YT channel! 😍
Busy binge-watching all your back catalog content and learning so much! Thank you! 🙏
Appreciate that man.. And the super thanks.. Got at least 20 long form videos coming in the next month
@@AllAccessConstruction Joe what you're doing is _sick_ and it will help inspire the next generation to get into the "hard work" trades. If we lived in Sacramento, would hire you in a heartbeat. Looking forward to your new videos. Subbed with notifications. 🔔
Appreciate the kind words.. 👍🏾👍🏾
I like this method better than the 2 x 4s and 3 /4 plywood and snap ties. This is easier to strip and faster to set up .
Been doing it this way for over 15 years
Was this wall permitted? Rebar in ground contact, gonna rust out fairly soon. The footer does not seem to be wide enough. Built a six foot high wall 100 foot long, footer was 7 feet wide and 2 foot thick, with the set back 5'-10" from front of footer.
Yes the wall was permitted.. The wall is only 5 foot high, footing 18 inches thick and no the rebar is not on ground.. Pass all inspection
A great effort. I believe it will still list. I believe had you built a tee footing you would eliminate that chance. Not sure of your region but the water has no where to go. Thanks for sharing
A Great effort? This wall is not going anywhere. Plus it is a tee footing. The region is California. 👍🏾👍🏾..
Also, we've been having huge rain storms drainage works perfect, 💯💯
@@AllAccessConstruction Thanks for the reply, but I can't see a "tee" footing here. There is some un-structural spill out of concrete at the slope side. I guess you don't get the freeze/thaw we experience. It must be incredible sandy soil, lucky. Would like to see a follow-up in a couple of years, sincerely; I'm not saying that to be a d&%$, just curious. Stay safe.
It's all good.. We've been building walls for over 15 years.. This wall had 3 inspections. There will be nothing to see in a few years expect the wall will be in the same spot and it will be in the same spot in 50 years..
Now that looks like new lumber! Love the hip hop too
Dats how we roll...
Great video and who cares what I think but I prefer the inter action between the guys not the music! But you’re obviously doing something right look at your views ! Great job!
All good appreciate you checking us out 👍🏾👍🏾
you know you could always use block styled pin and core fill or just full pin style retaining wall systems recommend either Belgard or versa lock brand
Yea way to much Excavation and backfill.. Geo tech guy will dam near have to live on the site, lots of geogrid and lots of compaction with sheep foot.. We will have to go crazy with the footing.. We use to and still do a versa lok and belgard block walls, did one 300 feet long 9 feet high.. About 6 years ago... Time wise for something this big will just be to long.. I'll find the link ua-cam.com/video/KiyGnp1p8co/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/oc81V87BgpU/v-deo.html
I don't understand why I'm not getting notified, dude I'm sorry 4 real, I will catch up! Anyways did u see notre dame hired a black coach! Super super cool! I only say that cuz I know u r from up there and I'm from NAP, dude I love this system you are using!WOW OG JOE JOHNSON, ppl,call me og Bobby Johnson sometimes lol
All good.. Its you tube... 😂😂😂
Amazing build!!
Did you have to compact dirt or add gravel under the footer?
Solid job. How many hrs for the crew?
5 guys 8.days build pour and strip.. No campaction
Footer and wall poured at the same time, damn. Must be hard being that good. I might give you a call one of these days when I get a wall next.
All good.. Let me know Joe.. 🤣🤣
That cage and wall are sick, I stick form my walls and this system is so much better and,prob alot fast too
Appreciate it
Wow, i need this done on my property, rough estimate for this ?
This was 90k plus excavation
Great video, this was a really enjoyable watch ! Keep these coming
Appreciate it.. 💯💯
Nice! maybe it was necessary to lay 8-10 pieces, pipes in the wall, so that the water would come out? I and tilt the wall about 5 degrees towards the mountain. I could be wrong ___))
We have a full drainage system behind the wall

DANG that was insane wow nice work gents.
Appreciate the comment 👍🏾
Love the little work ramps you guys made to help step over the footing rebar! Do you guys ever use wall panel forms or are you going for the "plank" look on your wall? great video
Nah. We pretty much 2*12 ova here muscle memory .. 🤣🤣
Hi that’s a strong wall solid I like things that are built strong looks good have a nice day stay safe cheers 👍👍👍😀😀🍺🦘
Right on appreciate the comment 💪🏾💪🏾
Mother of God that a big wall
Right on man... 😂👍🏾👌🏾
Do these have to be used as retaining walls or can they serve as free standing perimeter walls as an option to cinder block?
Free standing sure.. Doesn't have to be 8 inches tho. Like 6 inches
Always find it very interesting to see how things are built in other places, building codes, etc... - Very nice work, particularly on the footing cages. For a job like this, we would normally compact sub-base and pour the footer first (with a keyway and rebar sticking up to go into second pour) and normally require deadmans every X feet of length (depending on height and soil reports). Always a dead man or back set anchor to stop the wall from breaking and flopping over in the event of frost heaves, landslide, or other seismic considerations. I can see the base soil is clay, and I'm assuming the frost heaves are not an issue in your area. Very cool content !!!! Nice work.
Yea we don't have much freeze thaw out here. Also if we can we try pour monolithic all tge times.
It's definitely built for earthquakes.. We in Cali.. 🤣🤣
@@AllAccessConstruction I was also thinking about using panelized wall forms - they go up and down way faster for jobs like that (Aluma Lite Wall Form) using taper ties and quick braces - that job could go up and down in a few hours with a few guys.
Yea giving them a hard look
Ohh that's not far.. I'll check it out
My friend said in his area rebar inspection on the wall would fail.Spicing is allowed but must staggered
Hey Joe thank you for all your amazing videos. I been watching them and I have learned so much thank you. Question when you pr-drill holes for your kickers you use a regula concrete rotor bit? Thank you
Appreciate it.. Yes we have 1.5 inch and 2 inch
Thank you for the information
All good hit that super thanks button if it help you build that wall👍🏾💯
I'm not concrete guy did a little carpentry stil do but my question is if that dirt , hill decides to slide down against the wall will it simply topple the wall?
The wall not moving.. Also we did a final grade to the hillside
Nice work fellas!
Appreciate it Frank
160’ is long for a monolithic pour. Consider an expansion joint every 40’ or so. Thermal expansion and contraction will actually show this wall moving on the ends, although this may be acceptable for a landscape wall such as this.
Been doing over 20 years never put joints in any of my walls nothing has moved. Some high as 9 feet.. Also, This is not considered a landscape wall.. It's holding that whole Hillside up..
@@AllAccessConstruction to me, ‘landscape’ or ’site’ retaining walls are just not supporting or tied to a structure or building. I have seen long walls, with no expansion joints move 2-3” as they expand and contract. Joints may or not be needed depending upon how the wall is used.
Gotcha I can see that if it's tied to a structure.. Good point👍🏾👍🏾
These blokes need more tool bags.
🤣🤣🤣 LOL
By the time they put the first row of boards up, I could have the job finished with concrete and full of steel with footing. Stripped and gone to next job!!!
Good job 👍🏾👍🏾 we are aLways hiring
Yea Right, Lol.
Amazing videos brother!!! Other than the footing what holds the wall from falling over from the soil weight behind it? Can geo grid be used with this poured technique?
Appreciate it... The footing is what really holds the wall in place. By it being designed from a structural engineer it was designed not to tip over.. Geo grid is use primarily with block walls
Excellent job guys
Appreciate it 👍🏾👍🏾
Nice job 👍 , I’m going to bid on a 60 foot long by 4& 5 tall wall 👏
Nice.. Good luck
Amazing work as expected!
Do you mind sharing what brand/model of grey hoodies you get printed for your guys? they look like a great fit.
Appreciate the comment.. Marketing hack go to your local Foot Locker or Champs when the seasons is over and you can get the best price I got those last year at a champs about 10 bucks I believe
Which cost more? The house or the this wall?
And this is just the back wall.. 🤣🤣 The front one is 350 feet long..
The hard way of building a retaining wall!
It's quite easy for us tho..👍🏾👍🏾
It depends on your level of intelligence, your comment shows a lot of information.
Looks nice.
Appreciate the comment 👍🏽👌🏾🚨
No tie backs/ dead men? I know that monolith is strong but I didn’t think you could just pour a 5ft wall with nothing on the backside. Nice work though!
We poured monolithic up to 12 feet..
Check it out here ua-cam.com/video/BsPNTd19-0k/v-deo.html
Nice background «musique d'ambiance» music to relax to. Thank you.. Very clean job. I noticed that you do a standing seam with your 2x12's on the walls, does that change anything with the strength? Or is it a visual finish thing?
Appreciate the comment... Standing seam. I assume you talking about how the boards are horizontal? If so it's more of a finish look.
Yes the horizontal 2x12´s… thanks for the answer. 👍
So you leave the points of wood 2x4 embedded in the footing on both sides of the wall (100 min) 🤔🤔🤔
pretty much if we have time to pull we would or if we have exposed footing we will pull them. ( not sure what the (100 min) about
Lot of ppl think it's an issue but it's not all inspections past both by structural and city..
BRO! Great video
Appreciate the comment 👍🏾💪🏾👏🏾💯
No weep holes through the wall for drainage?
Nawww we de don't use the weep hole set up.. ☑️ Out Our French Drain Playlist bit.ly/3vmZdwQ
What calculations were done to determine this walls dimensions?
This was drawn up by the structural engineer
There’s a dude called “best from the west” on UA-cam (I’ve seen couple times…. )All I can say is that dude won’t even know where to start on a job like this…
Or any of you’re jobs you’re a true professional
👍🏿👍🏿 Appreciate the kind words..
How much would a job like this go for?
It's up there.. There is 3 parts to it. Check out the last 3 videos that I uploaded. 😉😉. That being said I really dont discuss prices.. I do appreciate all your support.. 👍🏿💯💯
Do you cut the stakes and leave them in the footing or when do you remove them?
If the footing going to be exposed or if time permits we will removed them. If not they will stay
Great video! How many tons of rebar and yards of concrete did this job need?
About 2 tons.. Think it was about 40 yards
Why is the footer on the downhill side? Isn't the pressure of the earth supposed to hold it down? Or was that not really an issue for this, or maybe it is just the weight of the wall itself and the footing makes a fulcrum point farther out that is difficult to push against? Any idea what the engineer was thinking?
As with any structural engineer it's no way to tell what there thinking 😂😂😂.. But it had to pass the city, county and state because the property was near a state creek..
Also, they build withstand 7.0 earthquakes...
Good show!
👍🏾Appreciate it
Are those forms reusable? How many yards of concrete?
Yes, they are.. This was about 60 yards
Guy with one sub to guy with thousands of subs: you should do it this other way. Lol 😂
😂😂😂 Good one we do all is retaining wall work now..
Very nice ,you just biuld it backwords 😂
👍🏾🤣
How much would something like this cost
This was part of bigger project.. Didn't spec it out just for this
Very nice work, cali be shaking sometimes.
🤣🤣 We had a couple 3.5 quakes today..
Your longer walls, do you try to use longest hor bars possible, minimizing overlaps?
Never worried about the overlapping unless it's a custom look the client wants.. We just grab what's next.. Most of our boards are 16 footers and 20 footers 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks, I was talking about longer rebar pieces.@@AllAccessConstruction
Oh yes all 20 footers
Hey! love the video! How long do you recommend letting the footing set before you start pouring concrete into the top of the form?
Appreciate the comment.. Once we go from one end of the footing to the other end.. We pretty much ready to start pouring the wall..
Looks great! How would you go about removing the crete that bled through the 2x12’s if at all?
It just stays there.. It eventually will fall off
You could chip it off but you'll always be able to see how the forms were set up unless you stucco the wall.
True 👍🏾
How high can you go using the wt8 or wt12??
Great video as usual
I've built as high as 11 feet.. Using wt 12
Redi-Rock
I love that block.. logistic-wise out here is just too complicated
Probably doesn’t matter in the big picture, but as a concrete guy myself.. the wood left in the pour drives me nuts. Great work, though.
Mannn at least you didn't think it was the end of the world. Like some of these guys . 👍🏾👍🏾 Appreciate the comment
Wow, nice job! what is the PSI of the cement for this retaining wall?
Appreciate the comment 👍🏾👍🏾 it's 3200 psi
6 sack pea gravel all our mix for the last 15 years
I would have used stainless steel gabion wall cages filled with chunky rock. Sometimes concrete and steel is a waste of money. Once a gabion wall is installed and settled you can plant ground covers to make that slope beautiful.
ok
Why no weep holes?
We added a full French system behind the wall.. Check out our French drain playlist... bit.ly/3vmZdwQ
Hello friend. Did you left the wood in concrete? I mean vertical ones that were sticked into the ground.
Yes for the most part they stay in..
Appreciate the comment 👍🏿👍🏿
@@AllAccessConstruction Thanks!
All good...
Im in the Bay Area as well. Im researching and looking for someone to do my retaining wall sometime in the summer time. How much does a typical 100' long 5 feet tall wall run? So I can get an idea how much to save.
You can text me 510 804 4646
We could build that same wall with 4x8 sheets if form ply paper face. In 1/4 of the time and 2guys ….rebar delivered. Bent just install This is middle ages forming
Let's see put it up on you tube or better yet tic tok there known for fast work. .Besides how fast you could of did it.. Did you like the video..
@@AllAccessConstruction I like your videos no hate dude. I just think. It’s way to much work. Concrete forming today is much less labour intense. But to each there own. There’s more then one way to skin a cat. I enjoyed it again no hate
Well it's all good.. The 1st post should of been.." Dope video.. But you guys should check out panels"
. There's a lot of you should of done it this way experts on here.. 🤔🤔
Appreciate the support.. Also, out here clients like the board form finish.. 👍🏾👍🏾
@@AllAccessConstruction ya we Brad nail hardie on the face of our form ply to create the board look the back side we just keep raw it’s all backfilled .. I like what you’re doing I just couldn’t make a buck doing it way to much labour. But you got it figured I’m sure. I’ll check out your video. I’m a concrete guy. Long time enjoy different. Ways.
Appreciate the support 👍🏾👍🏾
Hey man I'm about to bid a concrete retainer wall for a race track any suggestions
Double check the material count... 😅 😅 😅.
I wonder a estimate of a job like this. My retainer wall need some TLC and the other half need to be redone do to titling and the Blocks are crumbling. Drainage also sucks behind my walls. (Pause)
Where you located
@@AllAccessConstruction good ol State of NY. Orange Co.
We start at 800 liner foot.. I might have a guy out there
I would not allow wood to remain in footing. Doing that just to save time & money. Not right.
Sometimes not worth battling to take it out. For the most part we good.
Different climate different rules I guess. We could never have any steel break the surface of the concrete, or leave any wood. Rust and termites is the given reason.
Yea been building this way 15 years..
Why isn't there any contraction joint?
We never put joints in our walls.. If that's what your talking about
What is a ball park price of a project like this?
This project was part of the Longest #Concrete #RetainingWall On UA-cam : bit.ly/329erfh
We just did a bid on one simlar 160k..this part is about 200 liner feet by 5
Looks very strong wall. How much that cost?
Appreciate it.. $$$$$
no drain pipes needed?
Not in this video.. But there is a full French drain system behind this wall
Great job... use of wood planks instead of plywood for forms really adds a lot of character. Seeing knots and wood grain patterns helps keep massive wall more human scale. Concrete retaining walls need to last for ever. Cutting corners is never wise.
Thank you and can't agree with you more
why arent u using wall forms
Just muscle memory with the 2*12s... Plus out here ppl really like that board finish look..
excuse me 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
hi sir, may i reuse your video to post on facebook?
I will include the name of your UA-cam channel in the post.
please answer🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
thank u.
All good
Thank u💥
How many yards brother?
I believe it was 40 to 50 yards
Wood cost more than concrete
🤣🤣🤣 actually the prices has came back down pre-pandemic
2x12's expensive so depends how many boards you need
wouldn t the wall be stronger if all the joints were staggered
Nawww that has nothing to do with the strength of the wall in fact customer has stucco the wall so you can't even see it now 👍🏾👍🏾
How's thick?
8 inches
how much did this wall cost??
Good day.. Don't discuss prices on here.. You can reach me via Email..👍🏾👍🏾
how much it cost fir just the concrete
High end concrete going about 250 a yard
Wondering was trying to start a project in mex but wanted to see what im up against lol eaventho there prices are cheaper
All good.. Good luck
Think you put the long end of the footer on the wrong side.
Nope.. All been approved structural engineer, special inspection and pass all inspections
I use to think the same thing but all engineers do it this way I’m thinking it’s because the back side of the wall at the bottom is the wettest spot and the wall would flip .
Very clean job do you think this is equal to the cost of 3/4 Plywoid 2 x 4s and snap ties ?
Do you drill weep holes at the base ?
We just have muscle memory when it comes to 2*12..just started that way.. Plus we have over 2, 000 liner feet of 2*12s 🤣🤣 ..i am looking into tho.
Just the wood used costs a couple thousand dollars…😊
True stiry
I’m surprised they don’t offer or use ANY reusable molding boards! Seems they only offer labor. I think a professional company should have the supplies readily available!
Not sure what you mean by "professional compamy" But we're definitely professional on all levels.. Also the boards we bought for this project we are still using till this day.. It's been over a year and half
@@AllAccessConstruction I just hope the house owner didn’t pay for all the woods that his project has only used once! As I said, a professional company should HAVE these reusable things ready, and the cost of the molding should be spread out to tens of projects.
🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽🤔🤔🤔
Whats the price of concrete in your area doing.
About 200 to 260
This is like a 80k wall wtf
NAhhhh
How much did it cost
Close it was 90k
that's not strong the load outside is very heavy
This wall is beyond strong enough... Wall was designed by a structural engineer based on soils report.
Also, had to be approved by city and county engineer before a permit is issued.
You guys on here need to understand that there is more than one way to build a retaining wall. We are in earthquake country trust if we build it's dome right..
Seems 2 mistakes
1. Footing should be towards retaining side.
2. Bar overlapping should be aternative.
Appreciate the feedback.. Plans been approved by 3 departments.. Plus 4 inspection..
@@AllAccessConstruction !
Wrong and Wrong. Footing can be either side and overlaps are better staggered, but not necessary. Oh, and I've been building engineer designed retaining walls for 40yrs.
@@bernardrobinson837 one can make the footing on the top in the air as well. But the point here is to build optimum strength. Max strength can be achieved by making the footing towards the higher ground. because weight of the soil on the footing won't let the wall fall. It would be better if one makes counterfort retaining wall.
@@talalzahid84 What experience or qualifications in this area do you have?
What was the total build cost?
This wall was part of a bigger.. Minimum it would be 160k
LOL, this wall is a joke.
Glad you think so.. 🤔🤔👍🏾👍🏾
Great video!
Thank you, glad you like the video 👍🏾👍🏾
@All Access Construction I need to build a retaining wall, although not as long as yours here in this video, but I will build it alone. Your method here is practical and easy to envision as a single builder. For this reason by itself I am a new subscriber! Have a great weekend!
THAT'S great.. Good luck be sure to send some pictures
@All Access Construction you got it! I am also just now seeing that you have a video on how you built a curved retaining wall! Definitely one I will be studying!
