Three Twist Woven High Zinc Gabion Wall Cages

PVC coated high quality gabion three-twist woven high-zinc gabion basket for bridge protection

Gabion Basket Description :

Gabion basket is made of twisted hexagonal woven mesh. The metal wire used to make gabion baskets is made of soft tensile heavy galvanized steel, and PVC coating can also be used for additional corrosion protection when the application requires. The double twisting of the woven wire mesh provides structural integrity, strength and continuity by increasing the non-loosening effect of preventing any accidental damage from spreading. Fastening wires are used to assemble and interconnect empty units and to close and fix stone filling units. Once assembled, the basket will be filled with stones at the scene.

Application of Gabion Basket Retaining Wall

• Gabion Box Bank Retaining Wall are strong and reliable offering engineers many benefits for managing earth and water. Typically gabion baskets are preferred on large scale civil, mining, industrial, road and rail projects.
• Gabion Basket Retaining Wall Design can be widely used for erosion protection, roadway and bridge protection, gravity retaining wall, slope paving ,control and guide of water or flood and riverbank controlling.

Retaining Gabion Basket Advantages

1).Flexible structure to adapt to changes in the slope without being destroyed, better than the rigid structure with the security and stability;

2).Anti-erosion ability, able to withstand the maximum flow rate of up to 6m / s .

3).This structure has essentially permeability, groundwater and the filtering effect of the natural role of a strong inclusive, suspended matter and silt in the water to move in to fill the crevice in precipitation, which is conducive to the growth of natural plants, and gradually restore the original ecological environment.

Installation Process of the Gabion Basket

1. Ends,diaphragms,front and back panels are placed upright on the bottom section of wire mesh

2. Secure panels by screwing sprial binders through the mesh openings in adjacent panels

3. Stiffeners shall be placed across the corners, at 300mm from the corner. Providing a diagonal bracing,and crimped

4. Box gabion filled with graded stone by hand or with a shovel.

5. After filling,close the lid and secure with sprial binders at the diaphragms,ends,front and back.

6. When stacking tiers of the weled gabion,the lid of the lower tier may serve as base of the upper tier.Secure with sprial binders and add pre-formed stiffeners to exterior cells before filling with graded stones.
