    The stair and retaining wall system are 1/4" plate steel. There is some concrete at the foundation but it is not continuous. The system has some support structure behind and is covered with a fluid applied membrane prior to backfill.

    Is "plate steel" different from Corten? Thanks.

    Corten is a brand name for a type of weathering steel. Plate refers to the thickness of the material ( I agree - typically 3/16" and above.)
