C-Channel Steel Posts Sydney NSW

C-Channel Steel Posts — Sydney NSW

C-Channel (PFC) steel posts are the standard post specification for concrete sleeper retaining walls under 1.0m in well-drained ground. Retaining Walls Direct supplies hot-dip galvanised C-Channel posts across Greater Sydney — delivered direct to your site across the Northern Beaches, North Shore, Eastern Suburbs, Sutherland Shire, and Inner West.

C-Channel posts are NOT the correct specification for walls over 1.0m, driveway retaining walls with vehicle surcharge, or reactive Wianamatta Shale clay sites in Western Sydney (Penrith, Blacktown, Campbelltown, Liverpool). If you're building in those conditions, you need H-Beam posts.

C-Channel vs H-Beam — Sydney Quick Reference

• C-Channel (this collection): walls under 1.0m, stable well-drained ground, North Shore and Eastern Suburbs sandstone sites
• H-Beam posts: walls over 1.0m, reactive clay, driveway surcharge, Western Sydney, engineer-specified designs

NSW Building Approval Requirements

Walls over 1.0m require a DA or CDC. All walls must comply with AS 4678-2002 Earth Retaining Structures. See our Retaining Wall Regulations — State-by-State Guide.
