The Facility
The QuickBuild range of products
is manufactured at our Somercotes
facility in Derbyshire, which
has been manufacturing heavy
precast products for over 50
years. Continuing investment
means that it has some of the
most modern facilities in the
country. With a production capacity
of over 70,000 tonnes a year,
products of up to 24 tonnes
can be manufactured routinely,
and significantly heavier on
a bespoke basis.

Engineering and Design
With customers ranging from
the nuclear industry through
to waste recycling, product
performance requirements vary
greatly. A dedicated team of
engineers and designers, based
at Somercotes, can advise on all
aspects of a project from outline
design through to final value
engineering. They are supported
by Hanson’s specialist technical
teams in areas such as concrete
mix design and steel fabrication.
No other precast manufacturer
can offer this level of support.
Quality Assurance
From initial design through to
on-site logistics, all aspects of the
Somercotes operation meet the
most exacting quality standards.
These are maintained by Hanson’s
own in-house Quality Inspectors,
and audited by external
certification bodies. Somercotes
meets the requirements of ISO
9001, ISO 14001, ISO 6001
and ISO 18001. All precast
engineering is carried out in
accordance with British
Standards or EC 2 as required.
Mouldage and Cage Facility
As well as standard products, a
wide range of bespoke products
are designed and manufactured at
Somercotes. This is achieved quickly
and cost-effectively by maintaining a
highly skilled in-house mould joinery
team, and a steel reinforcement
bending and fabrication facility.

STORAGE CAPACITY
The unit will be designed to be
loaded from either side with the
following conditions: retained
material level with the top of the
wall and with an applied surcharge
of 10kN/m2 or a sloping backfill with
a maximum angle of 35º without an
imposed surcharge. The retained
material will be assumed to be
granular and drained with a specific
maximum moist density of 18kN/m3.
For more information on specific
material densities see table 1. When
installed with a suitable joint sealant
the wall becomes waterproof.
Unlike many other systems we have
no hidden costs for expensive lifting gear.
In addition to the overturning and
sliding resistance of the supporting
insitu base, the overall ground
bearing pressure must be checked
by others and considered when
designing the insitu support base.

EXPOSURE CONDITIONS
Due to a nominal cover of 45mm
(including ∆c of 5mm) and C50/60
concrete used in the manufacture
of the retaining wall units they are
suitable for the following exposure
conditions XC3/XC4, XD3, XS3,
XF4 as defined in BS8500-1:2006.
These cover severe conditions such
as tidal splash / spray zones and
de-icing salts. The limiting crack
width will be taken as 0.3mm
and the design life span will
be at least 50 years.
QuickBuild
Joint Profile
All our standard units are provided
with a unique interlocking detail
which further enhances installation
times through accurate and fast
alignment. The added benefits of
this detail also ensure a strong
and reliable connection detail
which can be made waterproof
with an appropriate sealant.

Material
Note 2 – For other material bulk densities please refer to Table 7 within BS 5502-22: 2003
The QuickLift System has
been developed to minimise
lifting times, as well as eliminate
working at height issues. Unlike
many other systems we have
no hidden costs for expensive
lifting gear, or the requirement
to fit lifting attachments.
Using a standard lifting hook,
a telehandler can complete a
lift from delivery vehicle to final
position with minimal secondary
operations, increasing efficiency
against alternative solutions by
some 20%.
FOUNDATION TYPE
Assumed to be uncracked,
mass / reinforced concrete base
of minimum strength 25N/mm2.
This can be designed by Hanson
Concrete or other manufacturers
to resist the overturning and sliding
forces exerted by the retaining wall
unit and to consider the allowable
ground bearing pressure to the
relevant site.
Consistence class
Note 1 – z = depth below rolled surface of grass silage or the compacted surface of bedding (in m).
Silage loading is in accordance with BS 5502-22: 2003
In addition all lifting positions
are located within working height
zones eliminating the need to
work at height.
4 | Hanson Retaining Walls
The grouted anchor bolts will be
post fixed into the suitable base
below and secured with a washer
plate on top of the unit to increase
the bearing capacity onto the base
slab and prevent punching shear of
the bolt head through the unit. The
resistance of the anchors into the
base must be checked by others.
Table 1 – Storage material densities

OVERALL STABILITY
The primary job of the unit is to
retain the material behind and to
do this the stem and the base have
been designed to withstand the
applied forces. However, to resist
overturning and sliding with a factor
of safety of 2 for overturning and
1.5 for sliding respectively the
units require anchoring into a mass
or reinforced insitu concrete base
which can be designed by Hanson
Concrete or other manufacturers
to give enough resistance to the
overturning and sliding forces.
DESIGN SCOPE /
PHILOSOPHY
The reinforced concrete
precast retaining wall unit has
been designed in accordance
with the latest set of Eurocodes
in particular BS EN 1997-1:2004 Eurocode 7 - Geotechnical Design
with the UK National Annex and BS
EN 1992-1-:2004 - Eurocode 2 Design of concrete structures
with the UK National Annex have
been used.
HOLDING DOWN BOLTS
M20 (grade 8.8) Anchor with
200mm minimum embedment
into the insitu foundation with
100x100x10mm washer plate with
22mm diameter hole. Hole to be
grouted up using non-shrink grout
with minimum strength of 40N/mm2.

QuickLift Handling Guide
hanson-precast.co.uk
1
Hanson has developed a unique
online tool that calculates storage
capacity and the number of Hanson
QuickBuild retaining walls you need,
helping you to plan your project
quickly and easily.
The Hanson QuickLift system
has been developed to ensure that no
additional lifting equipment is needed
other than conventional chains and
hooks for the three lifting points. Unlike
many other systems we have no hidden
costs for expensive lifting gear.
Using a standard lifting hook attachment
a handler can complete a lift from wagon
to final position with minimal secondary
operations, increasing efficiency against
alternative solutions by some 20%.
2
The QuickBuild walling system is
delivered on a flat bed wagon, nestled
for maximum efficiency.
3
The QuickBuild walling system
can be lifted off the wagon using
either the three point QuickLift system
or a traditional fork lift methodology.
NB: Ensure that the loader is of an
appropriate capacity to lift the units.
For individual unit weights please
see unit specification.
Lifting units with the three point
QuickLift system allows the units
to be easily manoeuvred and rotated
180 degrees, thus enabling units to be
placed directly adjacent to their final
position. NB: when determining the
appropriate handler the radial dimension
required to rotate the unit must be
considered and chains set to a max
angle of 65 degrees. A banks man
should be used at all times to ensure
units are safely spotted and manoeuvred.
4.0
Once unit is in position adjacent
to its final location the lifter to the toe
should be removed and the chains to
the two main wall lifters are shortened
and secured to equal lengths ensuring
a level and safe lift.
4.1
The unit can then be lifted slowly
balancing the weight on the back of the
heel. NB: if lifting off a hard surface then
a block or mat should be used to protect
from damage.
4.2
As the unit is lifted the vehicle should
move forward slowly ensuring that the
lifting chains are vertical at all times.
4.3
Once the unit is upright the third
lifter can be re-attached to provide
additional stability and maneuverability,
allowing the units to be lifted clear
of the ground into final position.
5 The QuickBuild wall can then
be easily located into its final position.
When positioning adjacent to another
unit the male connection joint of the
suspended unit should be inserted
into the female then lowered slowly
into position ensuring the units
remain interlocked.
