  • Large: 2.0m × 1.0m × 1.0m

Stone Fill Requirements

Use clean, hard, angular rock (100mm to 250mm size).

  • Average density: 1.6 tonnes/m³

  • Hand-pack visible outer faces for an even finish.

Filter Fabric & Drainage

Place geotextile membrane behind the wall to prevent soil washing through mesh cells while allowing natural drainage.
