Product Specification

3x1x1m Galfan Decorative Welded Gabion For Garden Wall, Gabion Retaining Wall

Description

Welded Gabion Box is filled on site with hard and durable stone to form mass gravity structures.

The mesh gabion box is manufactured from a main panel that forms the face, base, rear and lid of the unit. The side panels and diaphragms are then jointed to the base section of the main panel. The unit is then folded flat for transportation.

On site, the unit can be opened out into the required position and the sides, diaphragm and end panels are rotated vertically. The vertical joints are formed by a continuous lacing operation with the wire supplied or with 'C' rings to form the box shape.

Feature

1. Easy to Install

Align wire mesh with the spiral pole to form a single structure, the pole will fall down automatically by itself; no tools necessary.

2. High Quality Material

Made of galvanized steel wire, resistant to rust and corrosion; with grids evenly spaced at 5 x 10 cm and hooks to fasten and keep the original shape, gabion is solid and durable.

3. Multi Purpose Use

Can be used as partitions for a retaining wall, fencing, garden decoration; road building or stabilizing inclines against erosion.

4. Cost Effective

Replace traditional walls to save cost and time, easy to operate and has an appealing look.

5. Custom Fillers

Materials for filler based on your need, cobblestone, rock, brick fragments, concrete and wood blocks; lights, flowers or plants can be added for decoration and as the highlight of your yard.

How to install Welded Gabion Box?

1) Foundation preparation
The foundation on which the gabions are to be placed shall be cut or filled and graded as required. Surface irregularities, loose material, vegetation, and all foreign matter shall be removed from foundation surface area. Extra care should be taken with foundation preparations in order to ensure a level and smooth surface.

2) Assembly
Rotate the gabion panels into position and join the vertical edges with fasteners for gabion assembly. Where spiral fasteners are used, crimp the ends to secure the spirals in place. Where C ring type alternate fasteners are used for basket assembly, install the fasteners at a maximum spacing of 150 mm. Use the same fastening procedures to install interior diaphragms where they are required. Interior diaphragms will be required where any inside dimension exceeds 1m for gabion baskets. Diaphragms will be installed to assure that no open intervals are present that exceeds 1m.

3) Placement
Place the empty gabions on the foundation and interconnect the adjacent gabions along the top, bottom, and vertical edges using spirals or C rings.

Modular Assembly

Gabion cages can be built in a modular method by eliminating an end panel for each cage so no two panels need be connected together. The same method may also be used for successive courses including lid and base panels. Interconnect each layer of gabions to the underlying layer of gabions along the front, back, and sides.

4) Filling
Staking of the gabions may be done to maintain the established proper alignment prior to the placement of rock. Connecting lacing wire and other fasteners shall be attached during the filling operation to preserve the strength and shape of the structure.
Internal connecting cross-tile (stiffener) wires shall be placed in each unrestrained gabion cell, including gabion cells left temporarily unrestrained. In welded mesh gabions these crossties or stiffeners will be placed across the corners of the gabions providing diagonal bracing. Lacing wire or preformed wire stiffeners may be used.

The gabions shall be carefully filled with rock, ensuring alignment, avoiding bulges, and providing a compact mass that minimizes voids.
The last layer of rock shall be uniformly leveled to the top edges of the gabions. Lids shall be placed over the rock filling using only approved lid closing tools as necessary. The use of crowbars or other single point leverage bars for lid closing is prohibited due to the potential for damage to the baskets. The gabion lid shall then be secured to the sides, ends, and diaphragms with spiral binders, approved alternate fasteners, or lacing wire wrapped with alternating single and double halfhitches in the mesh openings.

Application

Welded Gabion Boxes are wire fabric containers, uniformly partitioned, of variable size, interconnected with other similar containers and filled with stone at the site of use, to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, sea walls, channel linings, revetments and weirs for earth retention.
