ADVANTAGES OF GABION WALLS

Ease of handling and transportation.
Speed of construction.
Flexibility (Gabions tolerate movement)
Permeability to water (Good drainage)
Gabions offer an easy-to-use method for decreasing water velocity and protecting slopes from erosion.
Simple to assemble and install
Modular Design, No maintenance, Durable
Flexible ... tolerate movement
Not affected by freezing weather
Speeder construction time
Applications: erosion control retaining walls , Privacy walls, noise barriers
Permeable allows water to flow through while maintaining soil drainage
A gabion wall design is more flexible. It is easy to change the configuration and dimensions of the wall.
Gabion walls with geotextile are permeable by retaining soil while allowing water to run through
The construction cost of the gabion wall is more economical than a conventional masonry wall
It is ecologically sound
The strength of the gabion wall is high
A gabion retaining wall is more durable as compared to any other soil and stabilizes the structure.

Advantages Of Gabions

There are various advantages of gabions. They are as follows:

1. Aesthetics

Gabion walls provide a very natural and aesthetically pleasing look as they use natural materials that incorporate with the environment.

2. Durability

Most Gabion types are highly resistant to atmospheric corrosion due to the well-bonded zinc coating on the wire.

3. Strength

Gabions are strong enough to resist flood forces, torrential forces, ice, and earth pressure.

4. Permeability

Gabions are fully permeable. It naturally drains off the water which eliminates the need for the installation of drainage pipes.

Different types of gabion such as gabion baskets, gabion walls, gabion wire mesh, gabion sacks, etc. are widely used in the stabilization of banks, coasts, highways, slope stability, and erosion protection, retaining walls, landscaping, military applications, and road building.
When stacked together, gabions will create a strong and robust structure that can support a large amount of weight. This makes gabions ideal for stabilizing sloping terrain and controlling water. Due to their strong bases, it makes it incredibly difficult for gabions to be dragged away by heavy downpours or vandals

EASY TO ASSEMBLE

Standard 11 and 9 ga gabion baskets are simple to assemble. The wire panels are connected in the factory and stacked for shipment in flat packs with edge spirals, corner braces and tie wire included. The assembly process for a 6'x3'x3' basket takes about 10 minutes.

After assembly, all that is required is to prepare the ground, layout and fasten the baskets together then fill the baskets with rocks.

Smaller gabion projects can be done with one person and no machinery. Taller gabion walls require stacking and fastening multiple baskets on top of each other. This will require extra help and possibly some machinery. A gabion retaining wall is more durable as compared to any other soil and stabilizes the structure.

Strong Retaining Walls

Gabion retaining walls combined with geo-textile fabrics are an ideal solution for erosion control and stabilizing sloping soil

When stacked together, gabions will create a strong and robust structure that can support a large amount of weight. This makes gabions ideal for stabilising sloping terrain and controlling water. Due to their strong bases, it makes it incredibly difficult for gabions to be dragged away by heavy downpours or vandals.
