When it comes to critical railroad infrastructure, only the most technically sound solutions will suffice. Whether your next railway project needs to support a live load, cross a wetland, hold up an embankment, eliminate a switch, or even elevate a track, Redi-Rock K.I.T. can help.
Redi-Rock precast modular block (PMB) products and accessories are made of first-purpose, air-entrained, wetcast concrete that will stand the test of time. The broad range of massive blocks can be used to build gravity, reinforced, freestanding or hybrid walls, and the system is backed up by a wealth of engineering resources and a technical support team to help you tackle your toughest rail projects. With natural stone textures, the solutions look great, too!

In many scenarios, tall gravity walls can be used to simplify rail projects. With no need for tiebacks, the massive PMBs stack up like giant Lego blocks to hold back the earth with their mass. The patented knob and groove technology provides a strong sheer interface connection, as well as makes the proper setback angle easy to achieve. With the easy installation sequence, track closures and downtime can be kept to a minimum!
Reinforced walls designed with Positive Connection (PC) blocks can meet the most demanding structural needs of rail projects, including meeting AASHTO LRFD and AREMA specifications. Strips of geogrid wrap through a core slot cast into the block creating a weight independent connection. Not only can these MSE walls support heavy live loads and reach extreme heights, there’s also no need to worry about metal fasteners or reinforcement interacting with stray electrical current.
Redi-Rock Freestanding blocks can create parapet, barrier or force protection options to provide top of wall safety functionality. With texture on two sides, freestanding blocks can be used to create a stand-alone wall or be used with other wall types to complete the integrated wall solutions.
Hybrid solutions are an option with the Redi-Rock system because all wall types can be combined to create integrated wall solutions. Whatever the engineering demands are behind the wall, the face of the wall presents a cohesive solution. Mix and match the wall types you need to get the engineered result you’re after for your next rail project.
