MODULAR BLOCK RETAINING WALL SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTING SAME

摘要

A modular wall block (10) is formed with a recess (32) in a top surface, to receive fingers of a rake-like grid connection device (74). The fingers pass through apertures of a grid-like sheet of reinforcing material (44), which extends rearward to reinforce earth fill (75) behind a retaining wall (80) formed from such blocks. The rake may include a spine with tabs (120) projecting upwardly to engage a slot (102) in the bottom of a higher wall block to position the blocks. Slat members (56) are received in grooves (52) on the block sides to project upward and to the sides to engage and position adjacent blocks.
