Grassroots seating The method using standard Terraforce retaining blocks to create seating and stairs was popular in the early years of the company, and although it still represents the most cost effective way of constructing seating, it has been steadily losing ground to the more sophisticated method of using the 4x4 step block.

Fifteen years ago Holger Rust, owner of Terraforce – a local and international pre-cast concrete block licensor – developed a new retaining block, the Multi 4×4 Step block: a light, dry-stack concrete unit, generally used for constructing low terrace walls, stairs and seating arrangements: Aimed at providing efficient and economical steps in conjunction with the original retaining blocks of his design, they soon became very popular not only for stairway access, but also to provide comfortable, practical stair and seating arrangements at leisure amenities and school sports facilities. Free standing staircases integrated staircases public seating auditoriums or arenas access and seating ramps

The Terraforce 4x4 Multi Step block can work on it’s own or and in conjunction with the L Range retaining blocks. The method of combining the 4x4 block with one of their retaining blocks has become very popular. The blocks can be inclined between 23 and 39 to enable the construction of a proper stand lending itself to constructing small seating arrangements for pre-school facilities with; say 50 seats, to large scale arenas, capable of accommodating 20, 000 spectators. With proper planning, unsightly and eroding embankments can be turned in to something useful and pleasing to the eye. Like Terraforce’s products, the 4x4 Multi Step block requires low hardware input for manufacture, low transport costs and low inventory requirements at sales outlets.
