Recommended Installation:
1) Excavate a level trench 9” deep by 16” wide.
2) Fill the trench with 6” of stone (3/4” – 1” clean stone is recommended).
3) Compact the stone with a tamper or flat shovel.
4) Lay the base course, making sure that at least 2” is below grade.
5) Level the base course.
6) Backfill behind the block and compact (stone is recommended to enhance drainage).
7) Lay succeeding courses—backfilling and compacting each course as it is completed.
8) The setback of the block is determined by the installer. Various wall batters can be achieved by holding back each course consistently. Terrace Stone is engineered to go to a maximum height of 24” (or six courses).
