Boundary walls are built to separate two pieces of lands or two properties. Retaining walls are built to separate land on two separate levels. Let’s say you are on a hill. Since the hill is sliding one portion of land will always be above the other portion. This leads to soil from high ground to slip to lower level. A retaining wall is built to prevent this from happening.
