Woven gabion mesh can be used for slope protection, mesh shotcrete
on mountain rock surface, protection of slope green plants,
isolation and protection of railway and expressway. It can also be
made into box cages and mesh mats, which can be used for erosion
protection of rivers, dams, etc., as well as cage for reservoir and
river closure. The most serious disaster of the river is that the
river bank is damaged by water scouring, which leads to flooding,
causing a lot of loss of life and property and a lot of water and
soil loss. Therefore, when dealing with the above problems, the
application of woven gabion mesh becomes one of the best solutions,
which can protect the river bed and banks for a long time.
The fabric of Galvanized Gabion Basket shall be triple-twisted
hexagonal woven steel wire mesh complying with BS 1052. All wire
used in the manufacture of the basket, diaphragm, binding, and
connecting wire shall be galvanized as specified in BS 443, EN:
10244-2 with a coating of zinc by an electrolytic galvanizing
process. The minimum weight of galvanizing shall be as given in
Table. Zinc coatings shall be uniform and at all points more than
25 mm from a cut end, the coating shall be able to withstand a
minimum number of dips and adhesion tests specified as per EN:
10244-2.

/ Gabion Mattress made from a hexagonal double twisted wire mesh
with a mesh type 6x8. The wire mesh diameter is 2.2 mm. The wire
mesh diameter is 2.2 mm.
Advantage:
1. Economy:gabions' structures are very simple,just fill the stone
into the gabions then close the gabion ,the structure will be
quickly finished,low maintenance required .
2. Durable:galvanized wire ,it could resist the natural destroy and
corrosion etc,so the life time is longer.
3. Sludge in the stones is good for plant growing. Mixed to form a
integrity with the natural environment.
4. Good permeation can prevent the damage by hydrostatic.
5. Easily construct, no special technology needed.
6. Strong capacity of withstand nature destroy, rust-resistance and
atrocious weather resistance
7. Affording Large scale distortion, but never be defeated.
8. Excellent Penetrability, which can prevent from the whist by
liquid.
9. Saving the transport costs. Which can fold while loading and
transport, then assemble
