Architectural gabions, is also called stone gabions, welded gabions, gabion wall, gabion baskets, gabion box.
Architectural Gabions are made from welded wire mesh. Each gabion is constructed of rugged high tensile wire which is coated with a thick corrosion-resistant layer of zinc. The wire is also available with a tough, durable PVC coating. The use of high quality materials results in a longer, more reliable gabion life.
Characteristic of welded gabions:
1.Material: hot dipped galvanized wire, pvc coated wire, galfan wire( Zn-5%Al ), stainless steel wire
2.Type: welded mesh
3.Mesh size: 50x50mm,50x100mm, 75x75mm,100x100mm,100x200mm
4.Hole shape: square or rectangle
5.Gabion size: 1x1x0.5m 1x1x1m 2x1x1m 3x1x1m 4x1x1m
Applications:
1. Retaining wall structures
2. Prevention of current scour and erosion control
3. Bridge protection
4. Hydraulic structures, dams and culverts
5. Embankment protection
6. Rockfall prevention and soil erosion protection
Welded Gabion installation
Field installation is quick and easy. With diaphrams and stiffeners installed, the gabion may be filled with standard loading equipment. After filling the gabion, a lid is placed on top and secured with spiral binders, lacing wire or "C" rings. Welded Wire Gabions hold their shape better - they don't bulge out when filled. They are easy to handle, which means more work, less labor and higher productivity on the job.
