• FIELD CONSTRUCTION MANUAL- STONE TERRA EXCAVATION Confirm location and elevation of walls.Width of excavation should allow for width of wall base and drainpipe.Note: all excavation should follow applicable WISHA or OSHA guidelines.If the wall steps up one block in height,the base blocks should be installed at the lowest level in order to establish grade and face location of the second level. BASE PREPARATION Consult engineer's wall design for a base material specification including type,width, depth and compaction. It is recommended to start at lowest wall level. Locate the front face of the wall and run a string line one-inch in front of the face-two-inches above the base. Make sure the base material is well compacted. Test if necessary.After compacting,screed off base material,fill in low spots, and screed again.Repeat procedure as necessary to achieve firm,compacted base. Do not disturb string line.It is best to prepare the entire base before setting the blocks. LEVELING PAD SETTING BLOCKS Before placing blocks,make sure the top and bottom surfaces of the respective blocks are clean. At one end of the wall,or at one end of the lowest base elevation,start the wall.At the start of the wall,mark a line perpendicular to the face of the wall. This line will help place the first block square to the wall face.Place the first block one inch from the string line. Set the next block beside the first block, taking care to align the face. r--1i—k t-k r--, '1 LEVELING PAD GEOGRID MSE walls are walls that have geogrid material sandwiched between.each row of block. A maximum of two courses can be built before the wall must be backfilled. Start with the base course and lay the specified geogrid over the keyway of the blocks so that the grid reaches the face of the block,and covers the male keyway. Place the upper block over the grid,locking it
