Declare
All our retaining now carries the Declare label. Declare is a global initiative for building products that is designed to shape a greener, healthier environment and helps architects, designers, specifiers, and others better understand a product’s sustainable qualities and environmental effects.
Key Benefits
Durable Components: Inextensible steel reinforcement and 75 to 100 years of design life
Aesthetic Appeal: Wide variety of color options, textures and patterns
Design Flexibility: Curves, corners and unique geometries
Ease of Construction: Quick and easy, no cranes required
Cost-Effective Results: Competitive with other MSE structures
Intended for the Most Demanding Jobs : Deflections with steel reinforcement are reduced by over 66% compared to geosynthetic reinforcement


Seismic
Seismic design loads are easily factored into the Keystone® KeySteel System design analysis. The semi-flexible (MSE) system handles seismic events better than more rigid systems. Keystone® KeySteel System structures have a proven track record of high performance, withstanding seismic events without failure or significant detrimental effects on the wall structure.
Strength
The strength and performance of a retaining wall system is an obvious top consideration for wall specifiers and designers. KeySteel® is one of the most durable retention solutions available. It features patented concrete block units that are manufactured to a minimum compressive strength of 4,000 psi.
The units are dry stacked and interlocked vertically and horizontally using high-strength fiberglass pins and galvanized steel pins. This method provides a very strong, mechanically interlocked facing system. KeySteel is also the ideal product for tall walls.
