P r a n n i n g Proposed MSE Retaining Wall Revision
BWG Project No. 09083
Interiors
The general contractor is requesting a substitution to the approved MSE
retaining wall product.
Approved Product: The Keystone Century Wall - Vail Blend product was
previously presented to DRB. An example of the appearance of the product is
included on the next page and in the attached brochure. This product is
composed of three different block sizes to obtain the installed pattern and has
more of a rough hewn look. An actual installed example in the product in the
Vail Blend color can be viewed at the new snowcat access road at 890 S.
Frontage Road West.
Proposed Product: The Mesa Ashford product is the proposed alternate to the
Keystone product. An example of the appearance and color is included on the
next page and a brochure is attached. This product would be composed of
three different size block to obtain the installed pattern and has more of an
dressed stone (ashlar) look. One exception to the brochure and the mock up is
that the vertical unit would be cut in half to provide an 8" x 6" unit resulting in
a pattern matching the pattern of the approved product above. A mock up of
the product is available for viewing at the north side of the fire station site.

The 4" Keystone Half Century Wall" can be easily combined with 8"
Keystone Century Wall units for almost any application. The photograph
above beautifully illustrates this design combination.

Crafted specifically for taller wall structures and heavy -load-
ing conditions, Keystone Century Wall' offers the distinctive
appearance and character of a random - pattern, natural stone
wall with the structural integrity, performance, and the envi-
ronmental friendliness of concrete.
Three different -sized Keystone Century Wall units give the
appearance of classic, hand - crafted stone, yet make it
fast and almost effortless to create visually stunning and
heavy -duty wall structures. The Keystone Century Wall is
perfect for residential, commercial, industrial, and institu-
tional applications.
Keystone Century Wall is also easy to install and utilizes a
unique, patented fiberglass pin connection method for added
structural integrity and performance. The open -core design of
the Keystone Century Wall units allow for additional facial
stability and interlocking capacity. In large -scale and tall
wall applications, Keystone Century Wall offers the design
freedom to create curves, 9o° corners, battered and near -ver-
tical walls, terraces, and more.
Keystone Century Wall is the ultimate wall system to handle
the big jobs with beauty and brawn. Offering a quaint, old -
world appearance while providing superior strength,
Keystone Century Walls can rise to great heights with appro-
priate engineering.*
*For walls over 3 feet in height, soil reinforcement is generally
necessary. A qualified engineer should be consulted for design
and analysis of structures.

Features &Benefits
PATENTED PIN SYSTEM
. The Keystone Century Wall uses high- strength fiberglass pins
for shear resistance, alignment, and geogrid connection.
VARIOUS ALIGNMENT OPTIONS
• All units (excluding caps) have the option of a near vertical set back.
CHARACTER & STRENGTH
• These rugged and random -sized high- strength concrete modules have the
color and texture of natural stone.
• Larger unit dimensions are the appropriate scale for tall wall construction.
FIBERGLASS PINS
Keystone Century Wall uses high- strength
fiberglass pins with "shouldered" caps.

• Corner units have both "near vertical" and setback (8.8 setback positions.
• Corner units can be used as wall units with either the 16" or 12" face exposed
to add a larger percentage of longer units to the exposed face area composition
• Corner units can be placed on end (vertical) to create a 16" high jumper unit
between (2) 8" high wall courses. Some field adjustment may be required on
the textured 90° end to rest squarely on the course below.

The Random, Natural Look for Mesa® Walls
Ashlar Facing with the Ashford TI Wall System
Obtaining a natural- inspired ashlar finish for your
retaining wall project is easy when you follow one of
the three patterns developed for use with the Ashford
Retaining Wall.
The examples below are three of an infinite number of
options that can be developed with the Ashford Units.
The Mesa Ashford Wall's unique top and bottom
channel and positive, mechanical connection allow the
flexibility to design almost any look desired. However,
P r�
P,
the best patterns for constructability are designed in
two foot vertical sections and have a repeating pattern
as shown below.
These units are available in the same colors, blends
and textures as other Mesa Units. They can even be
antiqued for a beautiful weathered look with minimal
product waste. Walls can be built to a near - vertical
facing angle, or they can be installed to create 90°
corners, stairs and dramatic serpentine curves.
The Different Mesa Ashford Units
The Mesa Ashford System's veneer is made up of three unique, high- compressive strength, dry-cast concrete
blocks. Each unit has slots to lock the patented Mesa Connector to the Tensar° Structural Geogrids with the block
face. This gives the highest quality, block -to- geogrid connection and assures long -term serviceability.

From the table above, you can determine the block quantities needed for your project based on one of three
pre- designed face patterns. For example, a project requiring 1,000 square feet of wall constructed with pattern
6 -7 -2 would be calculated as follows:
Step 1: Determine the required units to complete the project
by dividing the total project square footage by the
pattern square footage. In this case:
1000 / 12 = 83.3
The Mesa Systems Advantage
Step 2: Use the results from Step 1 to multiply each unit
required for the pattern. For this example:
83.3 x 6 = 500 standard units
83.3 x 7 = 584 medium units
83.3 x 2 =167 vertical units
NOTE: Always round to the next whole number when calculating
block quantities.
Mesa Retaining Wall Systems provide superior, attractive and cost - effective solutions for all your retaining wall
needs. They combine the economy and versatility of segmental concrete units with proven geogrid technology to
create the new standard in structural wall systems. The only single- source, fully integrated SRW system, the Mesa
Systems are designed and detailed to provide optimum efficiency and long -term performance. With their positive
mechanical connection, full load transfer is assured from wall face to reinforcement for unsurpassed structural
reliability. Easy to handle and install, the Mesa Systems are also low maintenance as well. Blocks are locally
available in a wide variety of styles, colors and textures. For more information, call 800 - TENSAR -1.
