What sets this area apart

Mishref plots are residential and relatively spacious, many sitting on natural or excavated slopes to raise the building level. Retaining walls here bear medium to high soil loads depending on cut depth, and need effective drainage of rainwater and seepage from behind the wall to avoid hydrostatic pressure. We assess soil type, slope angle and natural drainage before selecting wall thickness and concrete reinforcement.

Mishref sits in Hawalli governorate, a residential district of spacious plots on varied topography near Kuwait University.

Most residential retaining walls in Mishref range between 1.5 to 3 metres in height depending on the original plot cut depth.

Questions about Retaining wall in Mishref

How do we prevent water seepage and pressure build-up behind the retaining wall?

We install drainage behind the wall with layers of gravel, sand and perforated plastic pipes to carry water away from the concrete. This reduces hydrostatic pressure and maintains wall and slope stability.

Do retaining wall drains need to be separate from the plot's surface drainage system?

Yes, retaining wall drains are independent and deep to carry water directly from behind the wall. The plot's surface drainage for buildings connects to a separate network tied to the street.
