Gabion basket consists of rectangular units, fabricated from a double-twisted hexagonal mesh. Filled with stones, it becomes large, flexible and permeable element from which a broad range of structures may be built. It can be widely used for hydraulic and geo- technical control such as retaining walls, riverbank protections, weirs, channel linings etc. It is divided into cells with diaphragms (usually spaced at 1 meter or 3' intervals), whose function is to reinforce the structure. The mesh (except for the diaphragms) is reinforced on all edges with wires of a larger diameter to strengthen the baskets and facilitate the assembly and installation.
Materials: high quality low carton steel wire or stainless steel wire, galvanized wire, stainless steel, copper and aluminum weaving etc.
Features:
* Economic
* Just fill the stone into the gabion mesh and seal it
* Simple installation
* No special technology needed.Weather proof under natural destroy, corrosion resistant
* No collapse even under big scope of deforming
* Sludge in the stones is good for plant growing
* Mixed to form a integrity with the natural environment.Good permeation can prevent the damage by hydrostatic
* Less transport freight.
* It can be folded together for transport and further installation.
Applications:
* Control and guide of water or flood
* Flood bank or guiding bank
* Preventing of rock breaking
* Bridge Protection
* Water and soil protection
* Coast protection
* Seaport engineering
