Description
Gabions is made
of double twisted hexagonal woven steel wire mesh, as per ASTM
A*****7
Gabions are filled with stones at the project site to form
flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining
walls, channel linings, and weirs for erosion control projects. The
steel wire used in the manufacture of the gabion is heavily
Galfan(zinc*5%
aluminum-mischmetal [Zn*5 Al-MM] alloy) coated soft temper steel. A
PVC coating is then applied to
provide additional protection for use in polluted, contaminated or
aggressive environments: in salt, fresh water, acid soil or
wherever the risk of corrosion is present. The PVC coating has a
nominal thickness of 0.*2 in. (0.*0 mm).
The gabion is divided into cells by diaphragms positioned at
approximately 3 ft (0.9 m) centers. To reinforce the structure, all
mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire having a greater
diameter.
