Brief Introduction of Gabion Box:
Gabions (from Italian gabbione meaning “big cage”; from Italian gabbia and Latin caves meaning “cage”) are hexagonal mesh or welded mesh gabions, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retaining wall/contain soil particles. The structure made by the Gabions reduce water velocities and re-capture river bed sediment in streams.
Gabion basket retaining wall can be built with speed and economy in all circumstances and are particularly suitable for landslide control in mountainous countries and in areas with persistently bad ground conditions. Where ground is liable to subside, the capacity of galvanized welded gabion box to deform makes them preferable to a concrete wall which would crack and collapse. In addition to the distinct structural advantages over concrete and other no-porous gravity way structures, the potential to vegetate a standard steel gabion box or wire faced wall offers unique landscaping potential as well.

Gabions can be used in many ways, including: retain unstable slopes; provide erosion control to rivers channels and shorelines; create acoustic barriers; dressed architectural buildings and many other applications that require a permeable, flexible, durable and very cost effective structure.
