gabion box (also called heavy hexagonal, pinch spend net, Gabion network, three rear section Machine Network) is the cage which woven by a kind of angular Network (Hexagonal Wire Netting), and the diameter of wire used is based on the size of hexagon. If the coating of the wire is metal, the wire diameter generally is between 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm; and if it woven by PVC-coated metal wire, the general wire (metal) diameter is between 3.0mm and 4.5mm. Wire used on the edge is 1st larger than the hexagonal wire.
Characteristics:
(1) Economic and useful: What we need to do is just put the stones into the cage without special skills.
(2) It is convenient to transport as it can be transported folded, assembly on site.
(3) It has a strong resistance to natural destruction and poor weather.
(4) It can withstand large-scale deformation, and does not collapse.
(5) Some plants can grow in the gap among the rocks, and it can melt with the natural environment surrounding together.
(6) And it has good permeability, which can prevent the damage caused by fluid static.
Uses of Stone netting: This production can be widely used in highways, railways, protecting hillside, hillside greening, well and alley fence, building and breeding, zoo fence, greening fence, hillside net cage, flood fighting net cage, revet fence, control and guide the direction of river, spillway and diversion channel, rock fall protection, prevent soil and water from flowing, beach protecting project, protection of the bridge, solid structures defense project, retaining wall, and port project, etc.
