Double Twisted Hexagonal Mesh Gabions and Mattresses are engineered solutions for soil retention, slope stabilization, and erosion control. These structures combine flexibility, durability, and permeability, making them ideal for challenging environmental conditions. Manufactured from low-carbon steel wire with double-twisted hexagonal weaving, the gabions prevent unraveling even if wires are damaged, ensuring long-term structural integrity .
Technical Specifications
- Wire Diameter: 2.0–3.9 mm (±0.07 mm tolerance)
- Zinc Coating: 215–275 g/m² (hot-dip galvanized per ASTM A641)
- Mesh Aperture: 80×100 mm or 100×120 mm (+16%/-4% tolerance)
- Standard Sizes (L×W×H): 1.5×1×0.5 m to 4×1×1 m (customizable)
- Diaphragms: 0–3 internal partitions for enhanced load distribution
Applications
- Soil Retention: Retaining walls for slopes and embankments .
- Erosion Control: Riverbank protection, coastal defense, and scour prevention .
- Infrastructure Protection: Bridge abutments, roadways, and hydraulic structures .
Advantages
- Flexibility: Adapts to ground settlement (up to 15% deformation) without failure .
- Permeability: Allows natural drainage, reducing hydrostatic pressure .
- Eco-Friendly: Promotes vegetation growth within stone fill for ecological integration .
- Cost-Efficient: Low maintenance and easy installation with unskilled labor .
Summary
Double-twisted hexagonal gabions provide soil retention and erosion control with flexible, permeable structures. Hot-dip galvanized for durability in riverbank and slope applications .
Note: All specifications comply with ASTM A975-97 standards . Custom sizes and coatings (Galfan, PVC) are available for specific project needs .
