The Flood Defense System
Aquacast International have developed a versatile, innovative new system of interlocking pre-cast concrete blocks, specifically designed for the rapid and simple construction of retaining walls.
The W shaped blocks have central slots which interlock with the next course and provide a centrally pitched series of holes suitable for piling or filling as required, making this system the first ready made bore piled retaining wall of its kind.
This simple and ingenious system comes in a wide range of sizes, designs and finishes making it ideal for multiple functions - from permanent structures requiring strength, such as Sea defence walls for Harbours and Jetties and River bank reinforcement - to temporary applications like Flood defence walls and Car Park Traffic Management where the requirement is speedy assembly, a barrier can be constructed quickly and then easily disassembled for storage when the requirement has passed
