Abstract:Difficulties can arise when constructing noise walls and retaining walls due to utility conflicts, construction phasing, and inadequate access. The goal of this research was to provide guidance on the sequencing and placement of noise walls and retaining walls. The research included examining noise and retaining wall selection, standards and specifications, preferred methods and best practices for sequencing and placement, and design and construction procedures. This research provided background and documented challenges in sequencing and placing noise walls and retaining walls. The research also included preferred methods and best practices for sequencing and placement, and design and construction processes. A guidebook was produced from the research to provide a how-to approach to sequencing and placement of noise walls and retaining walls.
