Rib Rock™ Landscape Block Provides Functional Solution for Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Applications

Oct 4, 2023

Rib Rock Landscape Block offers unmatched design flexibility and can be used for a variety of commercial and residential applications.

Innovative Design Offers Structural Stability

Rib Rock Landscape Block can easily construct walls from 6 feet to 20 feet high with additional site-specific engineering.

The oversized segmental retaining wall units measure approximately 2’ x 4’ x 2’ and weigh more than 1,800 pounds each. Each block is manufactured with an interlocking mechanism that provides enhanced security for applications that need to hold back a lot of earth. Additionally, the substantial size and weight of each block boosts the structural integrity of any project.

Large Size Promotes Efficient Installation

Each Rib Rock unit is manufactured in a larger size than many other segmental retaining wall options. Large projects can be completed with fewer individual pieces, accelerating the speed of installation and helping small teams get the job done quickly and affordably.

WisDOT-Approved Engineering Overcomes Site Challenges

As a material that is approved by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for installation on MSE (Mechanically Stabilized Earth) applications, these engineered walls are used in a wide variety of applications that require lasting strength and enhanced durability.

MSE engineered wall applications may include:

  • Right-of-way restrictions
  • Protection of existing structures that must remain in place
  • Grade separations
  • New highway embankment construction
  • Roadway widening
  • Stabilization of slopes
  • Protection of environmentally sensitive areas
  • Staging
  • Temporary support for excavation and underwater construction
