The wing wall is a retaining wall that extends outward from the abutment at an angle. It serves to help prevent erosion and scour around bridge abutments and culverts by directing flow away from the structure. Wing walls are typically constructed of poured concrete, masonry blocks, or treated timber to stabilize the soil behind the abutment.
