Welded Wire Fabric Gabions

Key Features

1. Construction:
   • Welded Wire Mesh: Made from cold-drawn steel wire that is electrically welded at the intersections, ensuring a strong and stable structure.
   • Mesh Types: Available in square or rectangular openings, with standard sizes such as 1/2", 3/4", and 1".
2. Material Options:
   • Commonly made from:Hot-dipped galvanized steel
3. Wire Diameter:
   • Wire thickness typically ranges from 3 mm to 5 mm, depending on the specific application and load requirements.
4. Sizes and Dimensions:
   • Standard gabion sizes include:1x1x1 m
5. Coatings:
   • Options include:Hot dip zinc coating
6. Tensile Strength:
   • Welded wire gabions typically have a tensile strength of around 540 to 770 N/mm², depending on the wire specifications used.

Applications

• Erosion Control: Used to stabilize slopes and prevent soil erosion in various environments.
• Retaining Walls: Effective for creating gravity walls that hold back soil and provide structural support.
• Landscaping: Can be used decoratively in gardens, parks, and public spaces to create visually appealing structures.
• Flood Control: Employed in flood management systems to absorb water flow and reduce erosion impact.

Advantages

• Durability: The welded construction provides a rigid structure that maintains its shape under load.
• Low Maintenance: The galvanized or coated materials resist rust and corrosion, requiring minimal upkeep over time.
• Ease of Installation: Welded gabions can be quickly assembled on-site, often requiring less labor than traditional fencing or wall systems.
• Versatility: Suitable for both functional and decorative applications in various settings.
