So, can I use retaining wall blocks on concrete? *Do I need to secure them, or will the weight of the blocks plus gravel inside them keep them in place? Just rent an F-ing hammer drill, drill the holes, and anchor with rebar. It's not that much work, especially with a hammer drill. Two holes per block, even 40ft, might take you two hours tops. The retaining blocks already have holes for fiberglass rods that they normally use to tie the block layers together. Otherwise the blocks are just going to slide across the concrete. |
