Gabion box
Zinc coated box gabion
Box gabions consist of rectangular units, fabricated form a double-twist, hexagonal mesh of soft annealed, heavily zinc coating meet all international specifications. The mesh panels are reinforced at all edges with wires of a larger diameter than that used for manufacturing the mesh., to strengthen them to facilitate construction. Gabions may be divided into cells by fitting diaphrams which have the function of reinforcing the structure and making assembly and erection easier.
Zine coated box gabions with PVC sleeve
The characteristics of these products are similar to those of the zinc-coated gabions; however the wire, proir to manufacturing the mesh, is coated with a 0.4 to 0.6 mm thick special PVC (polyvinyl chloride) continuous sheath. A complete protection against possible corrosion is thus obtained making the gabions suitable for use in marine or pollutted environments.
Diaphragms are always recommended when gabions are subject to continuous stress caused by wave motion., or high water velocity, etc. Fill with stone, gabions become a large, flexible and permeable building block form which a broad range of structures may be built.
