Gabion Basket
Galvanized wire mesh gabion basket for erosion control and retaining walls.
- Heavily galvanized double-twisted wire mesh
- Modular design for retaining walls and slope protection
Product Introduction
Gabion Basket
Rectangular baskets of double-twisted hexagonal wire mesh, filled on site with stone to form gravity retaining structures. The double twist prevents the mesh from unravelling if a wire is damaged, and the filled structure remains flexible enough to tolerate ground settlement without failing.
Strengths
- Heavily galvanized double-twisted wire mesh
- Double twist prevents unravelling if a wire is cut
- Flexible — tolerates settlement without cracking
- Permeable, relieving hydrostatic pressure behind the wall
- Modular design for retaining walls and slope protection
Function
- Retaining structure
- Erosion control
- Slope stabilization
Applications
- Gravity retaining walls
- River and channel bank protection
- Slope stabilization and rockfall containment
- Architectural and landscape walls
