Civil retaining in Seacliff.
Seacliff (5049) sits 13.7 km from the Adelaide CBD, in the City of Holdfast Bay. Retaining here answers real loads where the ground is sand at the foreshore rising quickly onto clay-capped cliff-top ground and the blocks are the point where Adelaide's flat coast turns vertical — cliff-top blocks with real elevation. Walls are built from the footing up as structures, engineered and drained, because that is what keeps them standing.
