Flood Protection Gabion Basket Heavily Zinc Galvanised Wire 60 x 80MM
Gabion Basket details:
Gabion basket consist of rectangular units, fabricated from a double twisted hexagonal mesh. Filled with stones, gabions become large, flexible and permeable elements from which a broad range of structures may be built. Gabions and mattresses are widely used for hydraulic and geo- technical control such as retaining walls, riverbank protections, weirs, channel linings etc.
Gabion baskets are 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 gabions and facilitate the assembly and installation.
Engineering projects:
Gabion 3x1x1 is common in river construction, gabion box is filled with rock at the project site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, channel linings and weirs for erosion control projects.
Specification:
Standard sizes in mesh 80mm x 100mm nominal, wire diameter 2.7mm, Heavily zinc galvanised wire or Galfan coated with a 95%Zinc + 5% Aluminium Alloy:
