Gabion Retaining Wall Design / Welded Gabion Basket Stone Walls
Site Preparation
Step 1
Place stakes at the corners of the site where you intend to construct the gabion wall. Use the spade to dig up any grass or plants that would have roots under the wall.
Step 2
Examine the earth under the wall. If it is soft soil or clay, dig down a few inches and fill the hole with gravel to give extra support to the weight of the wall.
Step 3
Use the hoe to smooth the ground or gravel under the wall. Place the board on the ground and use the level to make sure the base of the wall is approximately level.
Advantages of Gabions:
Ease & Quicker in Installation
Speed of construction & Quicker Assembly
Rigid Structure
Strong base,which provides strength from being drag away by river or stream
Welded Gabion can conform to ground movement,dissipate energy from flowing water,and drain freely
Gabions strength and effectiveness increase with time as silt and vegetation fill the interstitial voids and reinforce the structure and provide extra strength
Reduce velocity of water as the energy dissipated by the rocks,thus reduce erosion
Applications of Welded Gabion Basket :
Gabion retaining walls are made of welded mesh panels filled with stones. These walls are strong and long-lasting and are often used in industrial areas such as mines or to prevent erosion along river banks or coastlines.
