Industrial Gabion Cage - Reliable for River Slope Protection Projects

1. Definition and Basic Information1

2. Specifications2

• Wire Diameter: Usually between 2.0mm and 4.0mm, and the specific value can be determined according to engineering design requirements.

• Mesh Size: Common specifications are 60×80mm, 80×100mm, 100×120mm, 120×150mm, etc., and can also be customized.

• Dimensions: The length is generally 1 - 6m, the width is 0.5 - 2m, and the height is 0.15 - 2m. Specific sizes can be designed according to the site conditions, and most of them are customized by users.

• Material: It can be divided into PVC stone cage net, stainless steel alloy stone cage net, 5% or 10% zinc - aluminum alloy stone cage net, and galvanized stone cage net. The galvanized layer of zinc - 5% aluminum - rare earth alloy steel wire contains 5% aluminum and 95% zinc, which is a new - type water - conservancy material with strong corrosion resistance. The zinc - 10% aluminum - rare earth alloy steel wire has a longer service life. Galvanized stone cage net is divided into electro - galvanized (15 - 30g/m2), hot - dip galvanized (40 - 80g/m2) and high - zinc (200 - 650g/m2) according to the zinc - coating amount.

3. Features2

• Safety: The gabion net protection structure is a flexible structure, which can increase its resistance to load due to the role of tension. It can adapt to the soil layer properties and combine with the soil layer, and is well - adapted to foundation deformation. It also has good seismic and impact resistance.

• Durability: The corrosion of the mesh due to oxidation is a very slow process. With the protection of high - quality 10% Al + Zn alloy and a layer of optimized resin film, its durability is further enhanced. The cost of gabion net materials is relatively low, and the dense mesh structure makes it more durable, not easy to deform, and not easy to be damaged during transportation and installation.

• Ecologicalness: The gabion net protection structure has natural water permeability, which will not cut off the ecological circulation system. It can introduce a natural ecological environment, and a vegetation layer can be generated inside the structure. Due to the reinforcement effect of plant roots on the soil, the safety and durability of the structure are improved, achieving a harmonious unity between the structure and the surrounding environment.

• Water Permeability: After the gabion net protection structure is installed, the water head will not increase. At the same time, it can ensure the natural exchange between natural water bodies and groundwater, further enhancing the environmental protection effect.

• Integrity: Although the gabion net protection structure is composed of independent units, each adjacent unit is twisted together by steel wires, so it has good integrity.

• Economy: The filling material of the gabion net is crushed stone or cobblestone, with a low cost. It does not require a drainage system, has a long service life, and basically does not need maintenance.

• Simple Construction: Gabion net materials are easy to carry, and the structure is relatively stable. During the construction process, there is no need to lay too much infrastructure, which is relatively simple and ensures the efficiency and economy of construction.
