The Gabion Word comes from an Old Italian word "Gabion" that word means Big Cage. A Gabion wall is a type of gabion structure. Around 7000 years ago, the gabion-style structure was used for protecting the bank of the river Nile.
Gabion Walls are mainly constructed for the soil stabilization purpose behind the wall and sometimes it is executed as a cover wall. Gabion walls are constructed according to the height of the wall and it's arranged with gabion baskets which are joint or placed in one or more rows.They are made from a galvanized hexagonal meshes and brocken rock that are placed in the baskets. Retaining structures are formed by stacking gabion baskets in a proper schedule and present an alternative solution for concrete structures in the area ofsoil stabilization.
Gabion walls have an application mostly in road engineering, e.g. construction of roads, embankments, retaining walls, slope protection, water barriers etc., and can have different functions:
We provide gabion wall service in India
• Aesthetic – gabion walls look natural and by using natural materials fits into the environment.
• Compatibility with the environment – using the material made by excavations the costs of acquisition and transport are significantly reduced.
• Water permeability – gabion walls are permeable and are not damaged by passing water.
• Efficiency of gabion walls - It can increase in time, since the vegetation fills voids and strengthens the wall structure.
• Negative influence in Soil movements – Soil movements do not negatively influence gabion walls, which is an advantage in regard to stiffer structures (reinforced concrete walls)
• Longevity – stone blocks are materials that are frequently used because of their longevity, durability, and stability. Usually, the stone is selected because of aesthetic attributes or the possibility of excavation produced material usage.
