Galvanized Hexagonal 80X100mm Hesco Wire Mesh Gabion / Gabions

The Gabion mats is a structure made of hexagonal double twisted wire mesh. Gabion mats are filled with stones at the project site to form flexible and permeable, monolithic structures such as river bank protection and channel linings for erosion control. The steel wire used to manufacture the mattress is heavily zinc-coated soft temper steel. The standard combinations of mesh is shown in Table. In order to reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedge with a wire having a greater diameter. es are divided into uniformly partitioned cells by internal diaphragms.

Gabion Mats are used for permanent erosion control in channels, streambank, spillways and stable slopes from surficial erosion. The stone confinement within the units allows for higher shear stress resistance than the riprap.

The base is divided into compartments and filled with stones at the project site. With lids closed, gabion mats form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures. The 100 feet (30m) long units make its installation fast and economical.

Soil bioengineering techniques can be used to promote vegetation in the gabion mats to provide enhanced shear resistance.

Advantages of  gabion mats:

• Gabion mat strength lies in their double twisted hexagonal mesh of steel wire which is reinforced by selvedges of heavier wire running along the edges.
• The base section is divided into compartments to restrict the movement of stone and strengthen the structure.
• The lid is supplied as a separate panel.
• The wire will not unravel even when cut.
• Assembly is easy, requiring no specialized labor and nearby rock is used for fill.
• Free drainage and 30-35% voids allow vegetation to grow.

gabion retaining wall systems are monolithic gravity mass structures that are ideally suited for erosion control applications and follow standard design methods for gravity and mse retaining walls.

note: the following information is provided as a guide to assist contractors and do-it-your-selfers in the proper construction of gabion retaining walls. the photos and illustrations shown on this website are examples of typical multi-course gravity retaining walls. this content is presented for general information purposes only and should not be taken as a suggested design or professional advice for building your wall. we always recommend that you contact a local professional engineer to evaluate soil for gabion wall design and based on a certified geo-technical soil report of the site location.

/ Gabion Mattress made from a hexagonal double twisted wire mesh with a mesh type 6x8. The wire mesh diameter is 2.2 mm. The wire mesh diameter is 2.2 mm.

Advantage:
1. Economy:gabions' structures are very simple,just fill the stone into the gabions then close the gabion ,the structure will be quickly finished,low maintenance required .
2. Durable:galvanized wire ,it could resist the natural destroy and corrosion etc,so the life time is longer.
3. Sludge in the stones is good for plant growing. Mixed to form a integrity with the natural environment.
4. Good permeation can prevent the damage by hydrostatic.
5. Easily construct, no special technology needed.
6. Strong capacity of withstand nature destroy, rust-resistance and atrocious weather resistance
7. Affording Large scale distortion, but never be defeated.
8. Excellent Penetrability, which can prevent from the whist by liquid.
9. Saving the transport costs. Which can fold while loading and transport, then assemble

STANDARD PARAMETERS OF / GABION MATTRESS:

Related standards for gabion

• Heavily zinc-coated steel wire conforming to ASTM A 641, Class 3 coating, soft temper;
• Zn-5Al-MM-Coated steel wire conforming to ASTM A 856/856M, Class 3, soft temper;
• The same type of metallic-coated steel wire as above, but with an additional PVC coating extruded onto the metallic-coated steel wire;

We always supply 3% lacing wire along with the material, which are used to assemble and interconnect empty units, to close and secure stone-filled units, and for internal stiffeners.
