PVC Coated Gabion Basket and es For Flood Protection
Product Description:
Gabions are an ideal choice for river erosion control as well as
coastal management and as sea levels are rising, there is an
increased risk to coastal communities. The PVC coated wire mesh
used to make Gabions and s is one of the few construction materials
that can withstand highly corrosive marine environments. Gabions
and s have an advantage over traditional construction materials
such as concrete because they are extremely strong and will not be
washed away. They are also permeable and are flexible enough to
conform to ground movement, as well as helping to dissipate and
slow the water flow.
Gabions basket sizes: 2m x 1m x 1m, 3m x 1m x 1m, 4m x 1m x 1m, 2m

Gabion mesh Features:
ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLINESS–Gabions and es are environmentally
friendly products.
PERMEABILITY–The stone fill allows the water to seep through the
structure while retaining the soil, therefore no additional
drainage is required to relieve the hydrostatic pressures.
EASY TO BUILD–Gabions and es construction does not require skilled
labor because they are very easy to build.
Gabion basket and mattress applications:
Control and guide of water or flood
Flood bank or guiding bank
Preventing of rock breaking
Water and soil protection
Bridge protection
Strengthening structure of soil
Protection engineering of seaside area.
How to built gabion mattress?
Step 1 Erosion Control
Individual Mattress is first unfolded on flat, hard ground and
stamped to remove all kinks. The two long sides and both end panels
are then lifted upright and secured in position by tying the
selvedge wires together.
Step 2 Assembly
The vertical edges of all internal diaphragms are attached to the
sides and laced with typing wire or approved interlocking wire
fastener.
Step 3 Slopes River Beds
The assembled Mattress is then aligned in the required position and
tied or fastened to adjacent mattress along the whole length of
selvedge wire. Mattress units should be placed in proper position
so that movement of rock fill inside the cage -- due to gravity or
flowing current -- is minimal. Thus, on slopes, Mattresses should
be placed with its internal diaphragms at right angles to the
direction of the slope. On river beds, position Mattress with the
internal diaphragms at right angles to the direction flow.
Step 4 Hexagonal Mesh
The stone is placed into the compartments (cells). If it's a slope,
start from the bottom. One or more Mattresses can be filled at the
same time.
Step 5 Erosion Control
Sequence the installation by keeping the stone filling crew well
ahead of the lid placement crew. Lids or top panels must be
securely tied or fastened to side-tops and end panels and also to
the top of the inner partitions.
Step 6 Form Cut Assembly
The Mattresses may be either telescoped or cut to form and tied at
required shape when necessary, e.g. when Mattresses are laid on a
radius. For a sharp curve, it may be necessary to cut the Mattress
diagonally into triangular sections and tie the open side securely
to an intact side panel.
