MINING TIP WALLS

MINING TIP WALLS

Retaining walls are extremely popular for holding back unstable embankments. Many different types of retaining walls are available, using bricks, concrete blocks, tyres, stabilized soil, wooden logs, etc.

This application is often used in mining environments where a primary tip wall is needed next to a crusher plant, for retaining the soil alongside the crusher machine. This wall would then support the tipping platform for the large dump trucks tipping the rock into the crusher from that height.

We have been involved in many Tip Walls in the Congo, Mozambique and Ghana for the likes of Senet Projects. In mines with the local supply of rock being a given the cost of a gabion structure can be one of the most economical structures to install.

The wall can be constructed using a mass – gravity Gabion wall or the reinforced soil wall referred to as a Gab – Tail wall.
