Gabion Basket is rectangular basket fabricated from a heavily galvanized hexagonal mesh. Gabions Basket depends mainly on the interlocking of individual stone and rock within the wire mesh for internal stability, and their mass or weight to resist hydraulic and earth forces.
It's a porous type of structure that can sometimes be vegetated. Once assembled, the gabion is filled with stone or rock and the lid secured to form a monolithic structure in accordance with the recommended installation procedures. Gabion box is enviroment friendly and cost effective when compared to other options. The strength comes from a double twisted hexagonal mesh of steel wire which is reinforced by selvage of heavier gauge wire running along the edge and by transverse internal diaphragm at 1m centre. In the event of accidental breakage of one or more of the wires, the double twisted wire configuration will ensure that the mesh will not unravel.
