Hi everyone!
I’m getting a bit desperate...
I need to create a slope towards the neighbor’s plot, from street level 0mm (0 inches) up to the end of the terrace at 120mm (5 inches). I’m digging here with a pickaxe, and the soil is stone mixed with clay.

I’m already quite deep below the natural ground level. Do I still need to dig down 80cm (31 inches) for frost protection?

Ideally, I would like to do some excavation, then set vertical reinforcement in concrete, and start building the wall.

I once checked a chart back then, and it indicated #8 rebar...
So now I have one embedded in each block.

Excavation with a temporary wall made of concrete blocks, soil, and gravel, wheelbarrow beside it.
