Temporary Works and Demountable Structures
Flexible, Modular Solutions for Construction and Civil Projects.
Legato® interlocking concrete blocks from Elite Precast offer a fast, reliable and reusable solution for temporary works and demountable structures across construction, civil engineering and infrastructure projects. Manufactured in the UK from high-quality precast concrete, Legato blocks are designed to provide structural stability, durability, and adaptability where temporary walls, storage bays or barriers are required.
The modular, dry-stack design allows structures to be installed quickly without mortar, making them ideal for short-term use, phased projects and sites with tight schedules.
Key Applications
Temporary Works Applications
Legato interlocking walls are widely used for temporary construction purposes, including:
Temporary retaining and containment walls
Site storage and segregation areas
Access and boundary walls
Earth support and temporary embankments
Asset and plant protection zones
The interlocking design ensures stability while allowing easy dismantling and relocation as site requirements evolve.
Demountable Structure Applications
For projects that require flexible and reusable structures, Legato blocks offer a practical solution. Common uses include:
Temporary workshop and compound walls
Reconfigurable storage bays and material segregation areas
Demountable barriers for site safety and security
Temporary environmental or flood protection walls
Phased or evolving infrastructure construction
The system allows rapid deployment with minimal groundworks, reducing programme delays and site disruption.
Suitable Sectors and Environments
Legato temporary and demountable structures are suitable for:
Construction sites and contractor depots
Civil engineering and infrastructure projects
Rail, highways, and utility works
Industrial and logistics facilities
Event sites or temporary public sector installations
The blocks are designed to withstand repeated use in outdoor and industrial environments.
