Each plan supports long-term stability and full compliance.
Brisbane’s eastern suburbs have variable soil strength, strong coastal influences and low-lying areas with higher groundwater. These conditions are common in Wynnum, Manly, Lota, Tingalpa, Carindale and Cannon Hill. Many homes in these suburbs also include older retaining walls, sloping blocks and higher coastal moisture levels. These factors require careful attention to drainage, surcharge loads and material selection. The Bay Area and Redlands region, including Cleveland, Ormiston, Wellington Point, Birkdale, Alexandra Hills and Redland Bay, features sandy soils, clay pockets and engineered fill sites. Retaining wall designs in these suburbs must meet strict stability and setback rules. Our engineering accounts for each condition so the design responds correctly to ground behaviour and moisture levels. We also ensure compliance with council-specific rules.
Each retaining wall plan uses your site’s geotechnical conditions, boundary setbacks and drainage needs. This creates a smooth and compliant construction process. Our goal is to provide clear, contractor-ready drawings that make building efficient, safe and predictable.
For official retaining wall guidelines, you can refer to the Queensland Development Code (QDC), specifically NMP 1.7 – Retaining Walls and Excavation and Filling.
