The orange lines on the ground indicate where the trench for the retaining wall needs to be dug out. Probably because of the limited space, this will be dug by hand. The first foot of this trench needs to be <g class=\"gr_ gr_6 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar multiReplace\" id=\"6\" data-gr-id=\"6\">dug<\/g> four feet wide; however, part of it needs to be dug down six feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picture 2 shows the back wall of the house on the east side. The retaining wall here needs to join up with the back wall of the house visible near the center of the photo. This trench needs to be substantially deeper and wider than the one on the west side. Fortunately, this area is also more accessible and so they should be able to use a machine to dig the trench for the footing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"638\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-004-638x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-004-638x600.jpg 638w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-004-300x282.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-004-768x722.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-004.jpg 1246w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><figcaption>Picture 1 &#8211; Digging of the retaining wall foundation trench on the west side of the back wall of the house.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-002-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-002-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-002-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-002-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wright-macdonald.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/D_20190107-002.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption>Picture 2 &#8211; Site of the retaining wall on the east side of the house.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning a new crew cleared away the refuse from the framing and then began digging the trenches needed for the footings for two retaining walls that will extend out from the back wall of the house.
