Triple Twist Weaving Gabion Baskets / hexagonal gabion box for flood protection
Gabion Basket means the provision by the machine a twisted hexagonal wire mesh surface together constitute a box-shaped components. Gabion at the construction site by a stone fill to form a fiexible, permeable and overall structure, is mainly used in retaining walls, channel lining, weirs and other works of retaining and erosion protection.
For over a century, triple twist hexagonal mesh has been used successfully in construction work. The triple twist weaving prevents unravelling. Baskets and mattresses made of this mesh fabric are a valid and effective technical solution in the design, construction and maintenance of a variety of protective flexible structures.
Hexagonal gabion box are usually made of different parts of the woven hexagonal mesh panel.The woven hexagonal mesh panel can be made of various corrosive resistant materials ,such as galvanised wire and PVC coated galvanised wire.After receiving these woven hexagonal mesh panels, the user needs to tie the different parts of the hexagonal gabion box with a lacing line and then filled with stones.The interior of the gabion basket is usually filled with some local stone or crushed concrete.Because these materials are relatively inexpensive, they can effectively save construction costs.
Advantages:
Since the flexibility and porosity of the gabion box can absorb some waves and wind energy, the erosion problems associated with impervious defense will also be reduced.Compared with welded gabion box ,there are no welding point, which can resist the erosion from flood and sea water. Additional, the twisted structure can supply higher tensile strength to be used in the heavy duty applications.
Gabion box applications:
1. Gabion application – soil use:
- retaining walls
- noise barriers
- reinforcement of the railway embankment,
- prevention of landslides
- roadside reinforcement
- slope consolidation
- landscaping in gardens
2. Gabion application – water use:
- reinforcement of river banks
- construction of dikes and dams
- flood protection structures
- water melioration works
- riverbed reinforcement
- drains, drainage and infiltration strips
