GravityStone Tradition FAQ

GravityStone Core and Fat Face refer to the same retaining wall unit. The term “Fat Face” originated within the GravityStone Tradition system, where different face unit depths were used depending on whether the wall was designed as an MSE or modular gravity structure. With the former Fat Face unit now referred to as the Core unit, while Thin-Face units are used in modular gravity configurations with trunks and anchors.

The Structural Systems

M.S.E.

Modular

GravityStone Core (Fat Face) combined with geogrid is ideal for fill site applications. The system can be constructed as a vertical wall or with a 4.5° batter, depending on design requirements.

Ideal for cut sites, GravityStone Modular can interlock with the system's Trunks and Anchors to form multi-depth modular gravity walls. This configuration allows wall footprints as narrow as 30% of wall height, depending on soil and site conditions. The system can be constructed as a vertical wall or with a 4.5° batter, depending on design requirements.

Advanced Applications

Lateral Hybrid

Using GravityStone Modular in the lower portion of the wall reduces excavation and overall footprint. The wall can then transition to MSE construction once sufficient space is available behind the wall to accommodate required geogrid lengths.

Placing GravityStone Modular in the upper portion of the wall creates a large void zone for utilities, structures, or penetrations—without interfering with the reinforced MSE zone below.

GravityStone Core and Gravity Stone modular systems can be combined side-by-side, using MSE where space allows and transitioning to modular construction to navigate obstacles or where a narrower footprint is required.
