Low natural-face walls around social housing at three sites
The project
Watpac Constructions delivered social housing across several Sydney suburbs. UCBC built the retaining walls surrounding the developments at Macquarie Fields, Narwee and Blackett, using a natural flush-face Keystone block on low walls averaging 600 millimetres in height.
Many small walls
Housing work is the opposite of a single big civil wall: dozens of short walls across several sites, each set out to the lot and the landscape plan. The value is in coordination and consistency, not tonnage.
Finish for a neighbourhood
A natural flush face was chosen so the walls sit quietly in a residential street and weather evenly across the three sites.
