Gravity retaining walls offer advantages in common commercial or residential applications:
MagnumStone blocks cover 8 sq. ft. (0.74 sq. m.) with each standard block.
MagnumStone hollow core blocks use 40% less concrete than solid concrete systems, are easy to lift with small equipment.
Crews of 2-3 people can install over 1,200 sq. ft. (111.5 sq. m.) of MagnumStone blocks per day.

MagnumStone’s gravity retaining wall extenders do exactly as their name describes. They attach to the back of standard blocks. This forms an interlocking extension that fortifies and adds mass to the gravity retaining wall base courses. Gravity extenders increase gravity wall heights by adding wall depth in 2 ft. (0.61 m.) or 4 ft. (1.2 m.) increments. Gravity wall extenders strengthen performance, so designers, installers, and landowners can trust and depend on them.
Unlock the unlimited opportunities of tall gravity walls. Use the secure tongue-and-groove interlocking connection between wall blocks and multi-length extender units. Their extra mass and versatility enhance the strength of gravity retaining walls from the base up, easily reaching over 40 ft. (12.19 m.) in wall height. When building with gravity extenders, the sky is truly the limit.
Outside corners are known to be a retaining wall’s weakest point due to their tight 90-degree angles, limited space and varying direct loads. The gravity retaining wall extenders’ versatile sizes can overlap in tight corners for additional strength and flexibility to further fortify and add extra layers of protection to these traditionally vulnerable areas of a gravity wall.
Gravity retaining wall extenders come in 2 ft. and 4 ft. units, so designers are never limited by their sizes for construction. No room for geogrid? Such walls can have a lower base-to-height ratio of excavation areas. This ratio can be as low as 40%, compared to typical geogrid retaining wall designs with 70%. Gain more usable space and easier access to piping and utilities behind the wall.
