Gabion Wall
Description:
Gabion wall is somewhat like a cage. The cage may be cylindrical or in the shape of a square or rectangular box. The cage may be constructed with a number of different materials, depending on the application. In some cases, the gabion is made with the use of metals, while gabion that are intended for temporary use may be composed of an outer shell of canvas or a similar material. the gabion is somewhat like a cage.

Material:
Gabion mesh is made from soft annealed steel wire which is additionally coated to increase its durability and design life. The coatings include: zinc galvanized, Galfan (a eutectic Zn-Aluminum (5%) MM alloy); zinc galvanized with PVC coating.
Application:
Gabions can be used in many ways, including: retain unstable slopes; provide erosion control to rivers, channels and shorelines; create acoustic barriers; dressed architectural buildings and many other applications that require a permeable, flexible, durable and very cost effective structure.
Characteristics:
Galvanized hexagonal wire nettings enjoy many excellent characteristics, such as good corrosion resistance, acid resistance, oxidation resistance, alkali resistance, weather resistance, anti-oxidizing property and a long service life.
Besides galvanized hexagonal wire netting is firm in structure and flat in surface.
