Gabion mattress, also called or Mac mattress, is made of steel hexagonal wire mesh. Gabion mattress are filled with rocks at the construction site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structure.
es are wider, with less depth than standard gabions. es are often used as flexible foundation slabs under gabions. Or used as channel linings and revetment mats.
* Environmental Friendly
is environmentally friendly product. The blending of structures into the environment is rapid and pleasing.
* Flexibility
The woven mesh system has the capability of withstanding unexpected or localized stresses due to ground settlements and scour by deflection while maintaining its structural integrity.
* Permeability
The stone fill allows the water to seep through the structure while retaining the soil; therefore no additional drainage is required to relieve the hydrostatic pressures.
* Cost Effective, Easy to Build
construction does not require skilled labor because of its easy installation.
Gabion Usage:
Gabion mattress is used for river bank and scour protection, bridge and weir protection, channel linings and erosion control. It is also widely used for the embankment stability.
The woven gabion mattress can be used in the differential settlement applications and the welded gabion mattress can be used in the landscape constructions.
