Introduction
Gabions are heavy duty rectangular wire mesh baskets filled with rock or rubble to economically and effectively construct earth retaining walls and erosion control structures.
In constructing such walls, individual gabions are used as construction blocks. These blocks are filled incrementally and tied together with heavy wire as construction progresses to form the complete structure. Mesh Pitch Sizes generally are in the range of 75x75mm / 100x100mm to 150x150mm with wires of 2.5 to 5.0mm
