wall 5Then it fell over. One night of rain was enough. This wall will be rebuilt using correct engineering and correct drainage. Another 40 trucks of dirt will be needed to top up the infill that was washed away. Probable total cost: around 250,000 baht.jazzmanJan 29, 2010

wall 4Wet dirt is a viscous mass far heavier even than the water in a swimming pool, and exerts even more pressure on the surrounding walls.
A rogue bnuilder charged about 180,000 baht for this wall.

wall 3If a perimeter wall is to be used for retaining fill dirt, it needs some careful consideration. This wall is (was) 100 x 20 for 1 metre of in-fill.
Think about the 20 cm thick, steel reinforced walls of your tiny 4 x 8 swimming pool...
