Hello,
I’m not a structural engineer, but would something like this hold? The neighbor’s gardener is planning something like corrosion protection from 4-6 cm as shown in the picture.
The top of the wall tilts about 10-15 cm onto my property. On the other side, about 160 cm of wall + soil has been piled up. The wall is about 15 cm wide and the angle in the soil is about 1 m wide. The green area is my soil surface. The wall stands almost flush with my sod or whatever it’s called again). The wall has no foundation. Now, a concrete wall about 4-6 cm wide and max 60 cm deep is supposed to be poured into the wall so that the wall holds?
I see it like this: the 60 cm depth + 5-6 cm will not hold the right angle. If it is raised straight up, then the wall will eventually break off, because the concrete cannot properly bond with the old wall. Do I have a misconception here?
