RETAINING WALL MATERIAL PLANNER
From an approved wall layout to a supplier-ready takeoff.
Count whole block courses and caps, estimate base and drainage stone, fabric, drain pipe and adhesive, check materials on hand, work backward from a budget, or compare two block systems on the same wall.

WHY THIS PLANNER IS DIFFERENT
Use an approved wall design, then make the material order precise.
Retaining-wall materials round in different ways: blocks by course, caps by length, stone by volume and weight, fabric by area, pipe by length and adhesive by tube. This planner keeps those purchase units separate without pretending to design the wall.
