I know it will vary with site prep and back fill just trying to get a general idea. I have a project in my head and want to know if it’s feasible. Mine would be about 30” visible height and probably 270’ long. thanks

This includes geogrid, fabric, glue, block/caps, and wall pipe. A block is 8" thick and 18" long. You'd need 180 blocks per line then a 4" cap. It would be roughly 14-17k installed probably. Material cost would probably run 9-10k. Last edited by cmontgomery; 03/20/25 05:58 PM.

For that height and length, I would do gabion baskets situated around 8 foot T-posts driven to desired height (easy with a skid steer or tractor), then filled with river rock, 3-7" diameter.
