Backfilling is important to provide structural support to underground utilities or foundations, prevent collapse or settling of excavated areas, and ensure the stability and safety of surrounding structures. Additionally, proper backfilling helps in maintaining the integrity of the construction project and minimizes the risk of potential damage in the future.

A backfill is the material which has been used to refill and excavation.
Backfill by hand - no compaction should be approximately $13.09 per cubic yard.

Soil is generally better than sand for backfilling because it provides more nutrients and support for plants to grow. Sand tends to be too loose and does not retain water or nutrients well, which can lead to poor plant growth.
The ground around your house's masonry foundation is backfill, meaning that the original excavation for the foundation was "overdug" to accommodate formwork and/or the masons themselves while either pouring concrete walls or laying concrete block. After the masonry work was done and a certain cure time passed, the backfill was placed to bring the finished yard along the foundation up to grade. In a case where the backfill has sunk 12 inches, the cause is almost always poor workmanship. Simply stated, either the backfill material is inappropriate (e.g. topsoil) or it was not properly compacted in lifts -- or a combination of both. Actually, the failure of backfill around residential foundations is quite common. Few residential contractors are soils experts. The only way to "fix" the problem is to add more backfill material to grade. Since it's to be placed against a foundation drain board, I would suggest coarse sand or pea gravel up to 6" below grade, then topsoil to finish. Keep in mind that you may have to "dress it up" from time to time for a while.
When the wall moves away from the backfill, the earth pressure on the wall decreases. This minimum pressure is called active earth pressure. On the other hand if the wall moves towards the backfill, the earth pressure increases. This maximum pressure is called passive earth pressure.

When designing a block retaining wall, key considerations include the wall's height, drainage system, soil conditions, and the type of blocks used. It is important to ensure proper foundation, backfill, and reinforcement to ensure stability and longevity of the wall.
