Retaining wall in Kuwait - Sharq

Retaining wall in Sharq

Retaining walls in Sharq must account for coastal soils and salt exposure. We conduct soil testing and drainage assessment before structural design, and deliver walls that hold ground pressure and resist environmental stresses.

What sets this area apart

Sharq has medium-sized residential plots and modern commercial buildings, many sitting on sloping ground near the waterfront. The soil here is sandy, mixed with coastal clay and highly saline, requiring effective horizontal drainage behind any retaining wall and corrosion protection. We test foundation depth and lateral pressure from saturated soils, and install a gravel drainage layer behind the wall with perforated pipes to channel groundwater.

Sharq lies in Capital governorate, combining residential and commercial buildings near the waterfront and iconic towers.

We set retaining wall foundation depth to at least 1.5 metres in coastal sandy soil, subject to soil test results.

What the work covers - Retaining wall

What the work covers

Soil assessment, structural design, casting and drainage through to a complete handover

  • Excavation and soil check

    Assess soil type and depth before setting footing levels

  • Spread footing pour

    Wide footing spreads lateral soil load across a larger base area

  • Wall reinforcement and casting

    Linked vertical and horizontal rebar placed before full concrete casting

  • Waterproofing and drainage layer

    Membrane on the retained face with gravel layer and drain pipes

  • Controlled backfilling

    Backfill in layers with controlled compaction to avoid surcharge spikes

  • Finish and handover

    Exposed face treated then final inspection carried out before handover

Questions about Retaining wall in Sharq

Call now
Does Sharq's coastal soil affect retaining wall design?

Yes, sandy soils and high salinity require precise geotechnical testing and strong drainage behind the wall with corrosion protection. We select materials and foundation depth based on soil test results.

How do you ensure wall stability on sloping ground in Sharq?

We calculate lateral pressure from saturated soil and design the foundation and cross-section to resist sliding and overturning. Complete rear drainage and settlement monitoring during construction ensure stability.
