MSE Walls
Unmatched Stabilized Wall Installation in Atlanta, GA
We specialize in the design and construction of high-performance mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls for residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. With expert engineering, durable materials, and precision installation, we deliver long-lasting retaining solutions tailored to Georgia’s unique terrain and climate.
What Do Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls Do?
Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls are structures used in civil engineering and construction to retain soil and allow for the construction of roads, bridges, embankments, and other infrastructure on sloped or uneven terrain.
-
Retain Soil
-
Their main job is to hold back soil in areas where there’s a change in elevation.
-
They create stable, vertical or near-vertical surfaces, allowing for more usable space.
-
-
Support Loads
-
MSE walls can support heavy loads, including vehicles, buildings, and bridge abutments.
-
The internal reinforcement allows them to handle greater pressure than traditional gravity walls.
-
-
Resist Erosion
-
In sloped areas, they help prevent soil erosion, especially in areas with rainfall or water flow.
-
-
Adapt to Settlement and Movement
-
MSE walls are flexible and can tolerate minor ground movements or differential settlement better than rigid concrete walls.

What Are Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls Used For?
From complex highway and bridge systems to residential and commercial development projects, MSE walls can fulfill many applications and purposes. Some of the structures it can reinforce and support include, but are not limited to, the following:
What Are the Advantages of an MSE Wall?
Budget-friendliness is among the prime advantages of mechanically stabilized earth walls. Since they are constructed modularly, they are more efficient to install, often reducing material and labor costs. They require minimal excavation and less time and money to prepare the construction and installation area. To learn more about MSE walls, please reach out to the team at MPW Infrastructure. We will assess your project requirements and determine if an MSE will fulfill your needs.
