Waiheke Island Refuse Centre - MagnumStone - Cirtex Study

Adjacent to the Community Resource Recovery Park on Waiheke Island are several commercial buildings, built on unsurfaced, sloping land. A stormwater drain runs between the commercial buildings and the Recovery Park, but the sloping land was of such a consistent gradient from the street level right down to the stream, that large rain events caused land degradation, with silt runoff flowing directly into the stormwater system. To prevent this from happening, and to reclaim more usable land, Auckland Council decided to install an enclosed retaining wall and create a level site around the back of one of the adjacent commercial properties. Cirtex assisted by proposing designing a tiered MagnumStone gravity wall edging the property’s lower north, west and south boundaries to retain as much usable land as possible within the existing site. With the use of extenders for quick installation, MagnumStone’s large 0.75m2 face area per block made it an ideal solution for the project.
