The gabion is a cage, cylinder, or box filled with rocks, concrete, or sometimes sand and soil for use in civil engineering, road building, military applications and landscaping.
Advantages of Gabion cages Structures
Flexibility: The double twisted hexagonal wire mesh is resistant to large weights. It also adapts itself to some displacement of the structure without breaking and cracking.
Durability: Galvanized wire mesh has a very long life. If PVC is coated, the service life is longer. In addition, double-twisted wire, even in the event of a single wire break, such as mesh wire braids do not dissolve.
Auto-Drainage: When gabion are filled with stone and rock, they have a porous structure. The porous structure does not retain water behind it, auto-drains and prevents the formation of water force.
Economy: Gabion structures are very economical compared to traditional structures. In addition, gabion structures require very little maintenance. (Lifetime economy)
Force: Gabion structures can absorb huge amounts of energy and perform smoothly for decades even under very large natural stresses.
