H Channel steel post for concrete sleeper retaining walls by UC

UC post options for NSW walls

Sydney customers choose the UC series by sleeper thickness and wall height. 100UC posts at 14.2kg/m pair with 75-80mm sleepers on walls to about 1.8 metres, covering most residential terraces and boundaries. 150UC posts in 23, 30 and 37 weights pair with 100-120mm sleepers and are certified for walls to 4.5 metres with engineer approval. Engineered and commercial NSW projects step up to 200UC46 posts, quoted from drawings. Matching concrete sleepers and PFC end posts complete the wall.

Sydney stock and delivery

NSW steel is held at Wetherill Park in western Sydney, which also services Canberra and regional NSW alongside our Victorian network. Delivery runs on external transport, so sites need forklift access; otherwise collect from the warehouse. Trade customers ordering through the trade portal get a 72-hour delivery promise on paid orders or next-day pickup, which suits NSW installers running back-to-back jobs.

Compliance for NSW councils

All UC posts are hot-dip galvanised to AS/NZS 4680 and ACRS compliant, supporting designs prepared to AS4678 and AS4100. NSW councils typically require certified engineering for walls above threshold heights or near boundaries and driveways. RWS does not provide engineering; start with our engineering guidance and we supply cut-to-size posts to your certified design.

Can I pick up steel posts in Sydney the same week I order?

Stocked sizes at Wetherill Park are available for warehouse pickup, and paid trade orders qualify for next-day pickup. Cut-to-size orders depend on cutting schedules, so confirm timing when ordering.

Which UC post do most Sydney backyard walls use?

Walls under about 1.8 metres with 75-80mm sleepers use 100UC posts. Anything taller, or any wall using 100-120mm sleepers, moves to the 150UC range with an engineer-approved design.
