Introduction to the MaytRx™ Multi Use, Multi Stone System
The MaytRx multi-use, multi-stone system has been developed to give a natural stone appearance to a manufactured system. The five stones of the MaytRx system are each a different size. These five different sizes can be used in a freestyle manner to design unlimited face appearances to landscape retaining walls, stone fences, and barrier walls, stone columns, steps and engineered Segmental Retaining Walls (SRWs) and many other projects.

There are five major segments to this section of the brochure. These five segments give installation information for (A) Landscape Retaining Walls (walls of 3’ height or less); (B) Freestanding Stone Fence and Barrier Walls (straight up); (C) Steps; (D) Special Projects; and Segmental Retaining Walls (Chapter 6 on other side of brochure). The MaytRx stone system is nearly limitless in its versatility because each stone has two faces and is reversible when used in stone projects. The installation information that follows is a guide to explain many of the multi-uses of the MaytRx system but is not intended to limit the installers own ideas. All projects can be built with split face MaytRx or “Antique MaytRx", a tumbled version that gives a natural stone appearance. Note: Production constraints in some areas require that all five stones be nominalized to 98% of the dimensions given in this brochure. Installation directions are not affected by this nominalization.

Engineered Segmental Retaining Walls Using MaytRx®

MaytRx® can also be used to build engineered Segmental Retaining Walls (SRW’s). MaytRx® pins are used to align each layer's setback and secure the geogrid during the construction of engineered Segmental Retaining Walls. Walls over 3 feet tall should be engineered (designed) by a certified professional engineer who is competent and experienced at Segmental Retaining Wall (SRW) design. These walls are also referred to as reinforced earth retaining walls because geogrid or other soil reinforcing mat material is placed in the select soil that is placed and compacted behind the wall stones.
