Our High-Resistance Rockfall Netting is a double twisted 11ga (0.120), hexagonal woven wire mesh that features a non-raveling design, superior corrosion resistance, and unique mechanical characteristics.
The double twisted mesh design offers resistant to unraveling when wires abrade. It is ideally suited for difficult rock face problems such as fractured stones are trapped and confined against the slope should isolated wires fatigue from prolonged stress. In addition, this type of double-twisted netting has the high mechanical resistance required to prevent the danger of sudden rock shock loads and dissipate rock fall energy created from loose fractured rock.
Rock fall netting is typically used in areas where there is a risk of rockfall, such as highways, railways, mining operations, and urban areas located near steep slopes or cliffs. It is a cost-effective and practical solution for protecting people and property from the rockfall hazards.
In severely corrosive environments or in seaside locations, the use of heavily zinc-coated and PVC-coated wire mesh is recommended. The PVC coating, .0216 thick, is applied to the wire core by the extrusion method. This characteristic does not alter the remarkable flexibility of the product, which has been extensively time tested on gabions and Reno mattresses.
The following installation instructions are the most common methods of installing rock fall netting. However, the placing of rock fall netting varies depending on the degree of slope, its physical nature, sizes of loose boulders and type of top anchoring. The characteristics of soil and slopes can vary therefore we are presenting the following placing schemes as general information only and not intended to be firm instructions
