Wallers are designed to transmit all loads from the soil through the retaining wall to the steel tie bars and to align and brace the wall in its position. In many applications, a steel waler or reinforced concrete beam is used to transfer retained loads evenly between tie rod connection points.
These are used to hold form work panels / shuttering plates / shuttering ply. They act as primary beams to be used with Tie Rod to hold the form work.
