Green field retaining walls
Retaining wall design for new residential developments, subdivisions and sites where levels change across the lot.
Retaining Wall & Fence Structures
Retaining wall and fence engineering for sloping, boundary and basement sites.
Linfinity Engineering supports homeowners, builders, architects and developers with practical retaining wall, basement retaining wall and fence structure design across Melbourne.
We help coordinate retaining systems with site levels, boundaries, drainage, foundations, basement interfaces and construction access so the design is suitable for approval, pricing and site delivery.

Service Fit
Good fit for level changes and boundary structures
Retaining and fence structures need early attention when soil loads, neighbouring property, drainage or excavation affect the project risk.
Residential retaining walls
Engineering support for garden, boundary, driveway and site retaining walls associated with home projects.
Basement retaining walls
Retaining wall and basement interface coordination where excavation, drainage and foundations must work together.
Fence structure design
Structural design for fence posts, boundary structures, masonry fences and fence elements affected by wind or retained soil.
Deliverables
Typical retaining and fence outputs
- Retaining wall structural design and documentation
- Fence post, masonry fence and boundary structure design where required
- Coordination with levels, drainage, soil and foundation information
- Basement retaining wall and excavation interface advice
- Practical details for approval, builder pricing and construction
Melbourne Support
Based in Camberwell, working across Melbourne.
Linfinity Engineering supports homeowners, builders, architects and developers across metropolitan Melbourne and wider Victoria by arrangement.
Process
From site levels to retaining and fence details that can be priced.
01
Confirm levels and site constraints
We review surveys, architectural drawings, boundary conditions, soil information and photos to understand the retaining or fence load case.
02
Choose the structural approach
The design approach is matched to retained height, drainage, surcharge, access, neighbouring structures and constructability.
03
Document the wall or fence structure
The output provides engineering details that support approvals, pricing, construction and coordination with the broader project.
Common Questions
Questions before you send drawings or site details.
Send the project context
Upload drawings, site photos, surveys, reports or a short note about what you need. Linfinity will review the scope and respond with the right next step.
Start an EnquiryWhen does a retaining wall need engineering?
Engineering is commonly needed when retained height, surcharge, boundary conditions, basement works, drainage or approval requirements make the wall more than a simple landscape item.
Can you design basement retaining walls?
Yes. Linfinity can coordinate basement retaining wall design with footing, slab, drainage and geotechnical information where the project requires it.
Do fence structures need engineering?
Some fences need engineering, especially masonry fences, tall fences, boundary structures, posts carrying significant wind load or fences interacting with retained soil.
