Quick wall estimator
A fast ballpark of sleepers and posts for the wall in this article. For drainage, steel post sizing and a full quote, use our complete calculator.
This is a rough estimate, not an engineering design.
It doesn't check soil conditions, surcharge loads or structural adequacy. Council and engineering requirements vary by state, wall height and site — always confirm locally before building.

Figures are a rough estimate only, based on standard 200mm-high sleepers (or, in WA, 1500mm wide concrete panels) stacked to your entered wall height, with one post per bay. They don't include drainage, concrete or steel post sizing — see the full calculator for those. Actual material needs vary with soil type, wall design, corners and site access. Always check with your local council or a qualified engineer before building, particularly for walls over about 600mm or near a boundary.
