Gabion retaining walls are a kind of retainining wall which is constrcted by Gabion wire mesh panel or bags, then filled with earth, rock. The cage is constructed of wire or wire mesh filled with rock or rubble. It is a Flexibility structure which allows it to withstand pressure without deforming, cracking or breaking the Riverbank Erosion Protection System as in the case of concrete and other materials.
In many applications, it is the most cost-effective structural wall to prevent Slope Erosion as it allows Soil Retaining using in-situ material and support habitat for aquatic plants and creatures.With vegetation layer, it facilitates grass establishment to provide aesthetic outcome.
Structurally, gabion walls are different, which allows them to be created in virtually any alignment due to the flexibility of the materials. The inner filling materials can be rock rubble, also can be crushed recycled concrete and other waste material instead of rock. It requires no special masonry or skilled labour to instal.
The gabion basket is available in a range of customized sizes for choice. PVC galvanized material designed to withstand chemical and UV weather resistance. It can be engineered in steps, also could be in a long flexible sloping shape, with all exhibiting a pronounced batter.
