Iron Wire Mesh Galvanized/PVC Coated Gabion Basket Prices Retaining Wall Blocks

Product Description:

Gabion baskets, also called gabion boxes, are made of corrosion-resistant, high-strength and ductile galvanized wire or PVC coated wire through mechanical weaving. Wire material is zinc -5% aluminum alloy (galfan), low carbon steel, stainless steel or iron.

Gabion mattress is similar to gabion basket. But gabion mattress's height is lower than gabion basket, structure is flat and big. Gabion basket and gabion mattress are stone containers, uniformly partitioned into internal cells, interconnected with other containers and filled with stone at site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures to control and guide water or flood, protect dam or seawall, or used as retaining walls, channel lining and other applications.

Gabion Basket Application:

• Control and guide rivers and floods

The most serious disaster of rivers is the destruction of river banks by water, which caused flooding, resulting in massive losses of lives and properties and massive soil erosion. The application of the ecological gabion net structure can permanently protect the river bed and bank.

• Channel canal bed

The construction of the channel involves the stability of the slope and river bed. It can effectively and permanently protect the river bank or riverbed, control the flow of water, prevent water loss, and has excellent effects in environmental protection and water quality maintenance.

• Slope protection

The application of ecological grid structure to river bank protection and slope toe protection is a very successful example. It gives full play to the advantages of ecological grid and achieves the ideal effect that other methods cannot achieve.

Advantages of gabion basket structure:

1. The flexible structure can adapt to the changes of the slope without being destroyed, and has better safety and stability than the rigid structure;

2. Strong anti-scouring ability, can withstand the maximum water flow speed up to 6m/s;

3. The structure is inherently water-permeable, and has strong tolerance to the natural and filtering effects of groundwater. Suspended matter and silt in the water can be deposited in the rockfill, which is beneficial to the growth of natural plants. Restore the original ecological environment.
