Gabion box wall

A box-shaped wire mesh gabion for erosion control, the most common civil engineering application, was refined in the late 19th century in Italy and patented as the Maccaferri gabion.

it was used to stabilize shorelines, stream banks and slopes. Other uses evolved, including retaining walls, noise barriers, temporary flood walls, silt filtration from runoff, small dams, fish screening, channel lining, and stepped weirs, which enhance the rate of energy dissipation in a channel.

Now this kind of Gabion Box mainly produced in China, as China has a very complete industrial chain, from raw materials to wire production and processing, galvanizing, and weaving. This makes Chinese gabion prices very competitive. And Hebei KN as the leader manufacturer of Gabion Basket, can supply fast delivery and best price.

Product Usage:

• Erosion Control: Woven gabion mesh is frequently used to stabilize slopes and riverbanks, effectively preventing soil erosion by holding back loose earth and allowing for proper water drainage.

• Retaining Walls: This mesh is ideal for constructing retaining walls that not only secure hillside soil but also add an aesthetic, natural look to landscapes, making it popular in both residential and commercial projects.

• Flood Protection: In areas prone to heavy rainfall or flooding, woven gabion mesh forms durable barriers that can divert water flow, thereby reducing the risk of flood damage and protecting nearby infrastructure.

• Coastal Defense: The mesh is used along shorelines to stabilize sandy beaches and cliffs, mitigating the effects of wave action and protecting coastal properties from erosion.

• Road and Highway Embankments: Woven gabion mesh can reinforce road embankments by retaining soil and reducing the likelihood of landslides, ensuring the long-term stability of transportation routes.

• Bridge Abutments and Foundations: In bridge construction, the mesh is applied to strengthen abutments and support foundations, offering a cost-effective solution for reinforcing structural integrity.

FAQ:

Q: What are Gabions?

A: Gabions are wire mesh cages made from GALFAN-coated steel, designed to be filled with stones or other hard materials for retaining wall or decorative purposes.

Q: What are Gabion Baskets used for?

A: Gabions serve various purposes, from controlling erosion and creating retaining walls to landscaping enhancements like garden seating, tables, or decorations.

Q: How to fill Gabion Baskets?

A: Filling a gabion basket is a straightforward process, but doing it correctly ensures the longevity and effectiveness of the structure. Begin by preparing the site where the gabion will be placed. This involves levelling the ground and ensuring a firm foundation. Once the basket is assembled according to the manufacturer’s instructions, you’re ready to start filling.

Start by placing larger, more uniformly shaped stones at the corners and edges of the basket. These stones will be visible once the gabion is complete, so choose ones that are aesthetically pleasing. Fill the interior with stones, ensuring they are packed tightly. Using a mix of stone sizes can help achieve a tighter pack, which will add to the stability of the gabion. As you fill, periodically shake or tap the sides of the basket to help settle the stones and eliminate gaps. Once filled, secure the top of the basket as per the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Regularly inspect the gabion basket, especially in the initial days after filling, to ensure that the stones are settling properly and there’s no bulging on the sides. Adjustments might be necessary as the stones settle. With proper filling and maintenance, your gabion basket will serve as a durable and attractive landscaping feature for years to come.

Q: How to install Gabion Baskets?

A: Each Gabion arrives as a flat pack kit, including all necessary components for installation. You will need to assemble the wire panels, using the helicoil wires and additional support wires provided.

Q: How to join Gabion Baskets together?

A: You can secure multiple Gabion Baskets together using steel clips or the helical wires. You can secure the steel clips with a pair of pliers.

Q: How to tie Gabion Baskets?

A: Although not standard for every basket, lacing wire can be used to join adjacent baskets as well as being used for extra support between panels either in the corners or from one side to another bracing, this helps prevent bulging when filling the gabion baskets with stone.

Q: How to stop Gabion Baskets from bulging?

A: Gabion baskets may bulge when they’re filled unevenly or overly full. To prevent this, ensure an even distribution of materials throughout the basket and don’t overfill it.

Q: What stone to use in Gabion Baskets?

A: The choice of stone fill greatly impacts the stability and appearance of the gabion wall. Angular stones are recommended for effective compaction and stability. Avoid rounded stones, which are more suitable for decorative purposes. Properly graded and well-arranged stone fill helps prevent voids and ensures a strong structure.

Q: What size stone for Gabion Baskets?

A: The size of the stone for Gabion Baskets typically depends on the mesh hole size. With a 80mm x 100mm mesh hole size, larger stones or cobbles are ideal.

Q: How much are Gabion Baskets?

A: The cost of Gabions can vary depending on their size and the specific requirements of your project.

Q: Who Invented Gabion Baskets

A: Gabion baskets have been in use for centuries, with their earliest use being dated back to Ancient Egypt. In their modern form, their design is credited to Italian engineer Rene Maccaferri.
