Heavy Zinc Coated Stone Filled Gabion Wire Mesh Cage Wall for Coastal Protection

Gabion (the Spanish word is gaviones) is wire mesh in double twist strong and durable.

The most common civil engineering use of high quality gabian baskets was in the late 1800s to stabilize shorelines, stream banks or slopes against erosion.

Other uses include retaining walls, temporary flood walls, silt filtration from runoff, for small or temporary / permanent dams, river training, or channel lining.

As a hard wire cloth the netting could be installed covering the slope surface to prevent people from being hurt by falling stones.

A great application is gabion is used for channel linings, river training, soil retention, slope stabilization, and other applications successfully throughout the world for over 100 years.

It can be a rectangular box shape. Mounted within are diaphragms that form equal size compartments or cells. The compartments or cells are filled with natural stone and the diaphragms limiting stone migration within the basket and providing an even distribution throughout the basket even after structural movement.
