  The MSE panel retaining wall system performs extremely well in a multitude of conditions, and particularly well in seismic zones, due to the built-in flexibility of the system, which allows for some movement without distressing the structure or causing cracks. MSE Panel Retaining Walls can also tolerate a certain amount of settlement, making it a desirable solution even in relatively poor subsoil conditions.

The MSE Panel retaining wall system is made up of a precast concrete fascia panel and reinforcing steel that is tied to the back of the fascia and extends horizontally into preselected and compacted earth backfill. The interaction among the facing panels, reinforcing steel and the selected backfill forms a block-like structure that can be used to support elevated roads or similar construction.

The precast fascia can be manufactured with many different textures and colors.
 

Pinnacle Design/Build - MSE Panel Retaining Wall Project Profiles
  Grand Soleil Casino, Natchez, MS
 

PROJECT FACTS:  Wall Area = 32,500 SF; Max Ht = 47 FT

 

CHALLENGE:  The riverboat casino development required a submerged retaining wall to support the proposed buildings and parking lot along the banks of Mississippi River.
 
SOLUTION:  Pinnacle Design/Build constructed a MSE panel wall that was submerged into the flowing Mississippi River that was able to withstand the annual flood waters.
 
VALUE:  The developer was able to realize the cost savings over other conventional construction techniques.

 
  University of Virginia - North Grounds Connector, Charlottesville, VA
 

PROJECT FACTS:  Wall Area = 24,200 SF; Max Ht = 42 FT

 

CHALLENGE:  The University of Virginia needed a new roadway over a stream valley.
 
SOLUTION:  Pinnacle Design/Build constructed two back to back 42 ft tall MSE- panel retaining walls to support the elevated roadway.
 
VALUE:   The MSE retaining walls were constructed quickly and at a lower cost than conventional retaining wall options. The vertical retaining walls minimized the roadway’s footprint onto the stream valley.

 
  Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CONRAC), Hartsfield-Jackson Int. Airport, Atlanta, GA
 

PROJECT FACTS:  Wall Area = 2,200 SF; Max Ht = 29 FT

 

CHALLENGE:  The City of Atlanta required a new bridge and embankment at a key intersection inside the new CONRAC facility under construction at the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
 
SOLUTION:  Pinnacle Design/Build constructed an MSE Panel retaining walls to form the abutments on both sides of the bridge.  We also constructed precast and cast-in-place concrete coping to finish the top of the walls.
 
VALUE:   The MSE-Panel Retaining Wall supplied the structural support required while its architectural finish provided an aesthetically pleasing touch.
