They seem to be much like Versa-Lok, where the specs are licensed to many mfgs. It looks like a great big concrete jack, like the ones you played with as a kid.

Here's one mfg ARMORTEC (http://www.armortec.com/products/products.htm), and some info about the product. Appears to be more of an interlock than any kind of riprap, with less structure then a retaining wall. Appears to be mainly to protect streambanks from erosion.

There's also info at http://www.a-jacks.com

Cool! Any pics of the work? How well did they do for their intended purpose?
