Revetment Walls
A revetment wall is a permanent structure designed to prevent the types of subsidence that commonly occur adjacent to all waterways and the ocean.
By definition, it is a protective covering on an embankment of earth designed to maintain the slope or to protect it from erosion.
Revetment walls are built to local council requirements along the council’s revetment regulation line which is determined by a waterways search.
In general, property owners are responsible for maintaining revetment walls that benefit their land.
Like all structures, a revetment wall has an engineered design life and requires regular and proper maintenance to prevent structural deterioration.
Preventative maintenance, including routine inspections by a suitably qualified engineer, will extend the life of the wall and prevent structural failure.
The Revetment Wall System employed by ASP uses pre-cast concrete panels for a quick and highly-efficient build.
