A concrete-free retaining wall solution where bored piers couldn’t hold.
Civil & Infrastructure
When a conventional bored pier hits ground it can’t handle, that’s usually when the phone rings. FTA solves the sites’ other methods can’t, with The Alterna Wall. A solution for culturally sensitive ground, collapsing soils, restricted access, and environmentally protected land. A fully engineered, documented alternative.
Why FTA for civil and infrastructure
A genuine engineered solution, not a workaround. Site-specific design and certification for retaining walls from 400mm to 4m, and foundation systems for problematic ground conditions generally.
No spoil, no concrete truck. Screw piles displace rather than excavate, which is why this system works on culturally sensitive and environmentally protected sites where soil removal isn’t an option.
Proven on the jobs that matter most. A concrete-free retaining wall solution delivered on a culturally sensitive Indigenous site, and a retaining wall project completed 900km from base in a fraction of the estimated build time.
Point of difference
On this segment, cost is rarely the first conversation. Contractors come to FTA because the standard method has already failed or isn’t permitted. We’re the solution, not the price comparison.
