AB
Courtyard walls can be built on uneven ground but are more often built on top of a level surface like a concrete slab or paver patio. However, you may also choose to have an AB Courtyard wall that runs alongside a driveway or
other landscaping feature and these most likely will not be level areas. So how do you build on uneven ground?
Walls
on uneven ground are installed using these simple rules.
- Always
install the blocks level from side to side and front to back. Trying
to install them following a slope is not recommended and
will not result in a professional installation.
- Start at
the lowest point of the wall on the slope. Dig a level trench 3 in.
deep (75mm) and 7 in. wide (180mm). As you move up the slope the
level trench will become deeper. Step the base up to the next course
when the base row of blocks are completely buried.
- Adding
extra base rock at a step will help in the adjustment to the next course.
