Gabion boxes are galvanized double twisted hexagonal woven mesh with a rectangular box shape. The compartments or cells are of equal size and are formed by internal diaphragms being placed within the basket. 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 centres. 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.
Advantages of gabion box
* Cost effective and environmentally friendly alternative to concrete system
* Simple and speedy installation, using natural or quarried stones obtained locally
* Ability to deform without cracking allowing the structure to withstand any unpredictable movement or settlement without loss or stability
* Higher resistance to natural forces due to better tensile strength
* Easy of repair to any damaged cages with minimal expense
* The use of gabions as retaining structures provide a low cost alternative to concrete or masonry retaining walls
The use of Gabions as retaining structures provides a low cost alternative to concrete or masonry retaining walls.
Applications:
Gabion box is widely used in many fields, including agriculture, industry and construction fields. Gabion box can control and guide water and flood and protect bridge, bank, seaside area, coastal embankment works, roadway and soil. Besides, this kind of product can prevent bank breaking, strengthen the structure of soil and retaining wall structure.
