6 Installation Instructions STEP 1: Remove all surface vegetation and debris. Select the length of the wall and excavate a trench the length of the wall and approximately 12 from top of final grade. Then place a dense graded aggregate and compact to 95% standard density or modified. It's not recommended to use a pea rock or a rounded type of material on the base. STEP 2: Place the U Start Base Block on the compacted gravel. Level the U Start units front to back as well as side to side. Making sure the units are fully level. STEP 3: Assemble the Tandem Wall units by inserting the Tandem Wall connectors into the dove tails. Make sure the front and rear panels are the same length. STEP 4: Place the assembled Tandem Wall unit on the top of the U Start Base Block, making sure that the first course is centered on the base block. Check to make sure units are kept level. 6 For more information visit Belgard.com

7 Scan to watch Installation Video STEP 5: Once the Tandem Wall units have been placed. Run a string line along the back of the front or rear panel to assure you are keeping the wall units straight in line. STEP 6: Place 3/4 crushed rock in between the panels to provide frictional connection and proper internal drainage. STEP 7: Lightly hand compact the gravel in between the panels for proper compaction. STEP 8: Place 12 of 3/4 drainage rock behind the rear panel of the wall. This will provide for proper drainage behind retaining walls. BELGARD.COM 7

8 Installation Instructions STEP 9: Set additional courses of the Tandem Wall. Making sure that you are keeping the wall in proper alignment. Backfill and compact each additional course. STEP 10: When placing the cap on top of Tandem Wall, use a construction adhesive to secure the cap to the top of the wall. STEP 11: Finished Project. 8 For more information visit Belgard.com

Use modules G only (Lg Unit 18.5 w) 24 of the long pieces are needed (21.6 sf) 24 x 24 Cap Unit (Sold Separately) STEP 1 STEP 2 Place the grid on a prepared surface Make sure the outside perimeter of the grid is clear STEP 3 STEP 4 Take a panel and slide the supplied connectors into the dovetails until they snap onto the horizontal rod of the grid. Take another stone and repeat the same process. Make sure you have a corner stone to finish the corner. Once installed, slide the stone along the horizontal axis to adjust the corner. 18 For more information visit Belgard.com

19 Design Details (CONTINUED) TANDEM WALL COLUMN LAYING GUIDE (CONTINUED): STEP 5 OPTIONAL Once you have completed the first two rows, use a square to make sure the column is square and then fill the space with 3/4" clear aggregate. Fill the empty space with aggregates at every row. If you have to cut the grid before installation on the base, you must cut the vertical rod at mid distance between two horizontal rods as shown below. STEP 6 STEP 7 Column Grid Long Veneers Grooved Veneers See detail view Front Veneers Set first wall course against the column Front Veneers Tandem Connectors To integrate a wall into the column set the first course up against the column. At the second row the long veneer on the column needs to be grooved. Set wall block into grooved veneer. You must groove a panel every other row. STEP 7: GROOVED VENEER DETAIL STEP 8 Row number 3 - full veneer panel Row number 2 - grooved veneer panel Every other row will require a grooved veneer. When starting row 3 place full veneer panel across the top of grooved panel. The wall block in row 3 will butt up against column similar to row 1. BELGARD.COM 19
