heavy heaxgonal gabion box

Gabion box are rectangular woven wire mesh baskets filled with rock to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls for commercial, industrial and road projects. They are also used for erosion control, bank stabilization, architectural and urban design features, noise attenuation structures and weirs.

The gabion box strength comes from a double twisted hexagonal mesh of steel wire which is reinforced by selvedge of heavier gauge wire running along the edges and by transverse internal diaphragms at 1m centers. In the event of accidental breakage of one or more of the wires, the double twisted wire configuration will ensure that the mesh will not unravel.
