Gabion box
Brief introduction
Gabion box consists 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.
Gabion box 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.
Name:
Gabion box, other name: gabion, gabion baskets, gabion wall, garden fence, gabion duvar, hexagonal wire mesh for garden use, hexagonal mesh gabion baskets for river bank use.
Notes:
1>Lacing and bracing wire is the wire used to assemble and join the gabion units.
2>Connecting wires are the internal wires used to prevent the gabions from bulging during filling.
3>On the hexagonal, double-twisted wire mesh opening shall not exceed ±10% on the nominal dimension.
4>In order to strengthen the box, all the edges of structure selvedged with wire of greater diameter.
5>Gabion box are supplied in various lengths ,widths and heights.
Galvanized gabion box
Hexagonal galvanized gabion box material:
1) Galvanized steel wire: diameter 2.0mm-4.0mm, tensile strength >380Mpa, zinc: 200g / m2.
2) Zinc 5% Aluminum wire: diameter 1.0mm-3.0mm, tensile strength >380Mpa.
3) Coated galvanized steel wire: low carbon steel wire, pvc coated
Surface treatment:
Electric galvanized before or after weaving.
Hot dipped galvanized before or after weaving.

Advantages of Gabion Box :
Simple to install – Using unskilled labour.
Environmentally acceptable-The use of local rock and soils for backfill is encouraged, with the subsequent growth of vegetative cover made easy.
Flexible Nature – Able to move and settle without failure, even on unstable soils.
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
Strengthening structure of soil
Protection of road
