External Works Woven Mesh Gabion Baskets
Products Description:
Woven Mesh Gabion Baskets are manufactured from a double or triple twist chain link hexagonal woven wire mesh. The double or triple twisting prevents unravelling in the event of some wires getting cut or damaged.
The pliability and flexibility of the woven mesh makes it extremely flexible and tough and the ideal solution for civil engineering applications typically on poor or uneven ground, where some deformation of the basket is required or expected. The resulting wall also tends to look more natural, giving it a dry stone wall effect. As a result it particularly suits retaining wall applications for river training and coastal defence applications.
Woven Mesh Gabion Baskets or Gabion Cages and es are purpose designed stone filled wire mesh baskets or cages for use as retaining structures. They are also sometimes referred to as just stone filled bastions, stone cages or baskets.
Gabion baskets are an economical, environmental and established solution for structural retaining walls and coastal defences. Designed like for like, gabions are hard to beat on cost and aesthetics when compared to other established retaining wall systems such as reinforced concrete and masonry. This is particularly so for low to medium height retaining walls.
Different twist structure
The gabions can be made into double twisted structure, which has 3
strands. It can also be made into triple twisted structure, which
has 5 strands. The double twisted gabion is suitable for the common
applications and is more economical than the triple twisted gabion.
The triple twisted gabion has higher tensile strength and stability
than the other type. It is suitable for the heavy duty applications
to defend the high impacts.

Advantages of the Gabion:
An outstanding advantage of the gabion is its flexibility. Its double twisted hexagonal mesh construction permits it to tolerate differential settlement without fracture. This property is especially important when a structure is on unstable ground or in an area where scour from waves or currents can undermine it.
The strength and flexibility of the steel wire hexagonal mesh from which gabions and es are made is utilized to withstand and absorb the forces generated by retained earth or flowing water.
Hydrostatic heads do not develop behind gabion structures because of their permeable nature. Their ability to combine drainage and retention functions make them ideal structures for slope stabilization.
Gabion or is a heavy monolithic gravity unit able to withstand earth thrust. Its efficiency increases instead of decreasing with age since further consolidation takes place as silt and soil collect in the voids and vegetation establishes itself.
Gabion installations are more economical than rigid or semi-rigid structures for a number of reasons.
