Hello all we are looking at a job which will require a retaining wall with a finished height of around 1.2m, should i seek the advise of a structral eng and any idea of costs for A the engineers report and B price per M2 for the wall ? Was thinking hollow concrete blocks with re-bar into footings then filled with concrete with facing bricks on outer skin with tanking on rear face and drainage etc, any advise would be great thanks Peter.
I wish i worked outside...
