NATIONAL GRID Hutton 400k sub station upgrade.

This was an interesting assignment to show a 165M x 14M high retaining wall constructed in 4 Weeks.

The work was to culvert an existing stream into 1200mm dia concrete pipes and construct a retaining wall using 2 different systems that interface with each other. the wall is 160m long and 14m high. Approx 40,000t of stone was used behind the wall with 68,000m3 of earth moved around site to create a 185m x 85m plateau. Bases are yet to be cast in situ to enable the outage to be met.
