We have 7 machines to produce gabion baskets, and daily production is 30,000 square meters.
the difference between standard gabion baskets and gabion mattresses:
Standard gabion baskets and gabion mattresses are both wire mesh structures filled with materials like rocks, but they have several key differences:
1. Height and Structure
-
Standard Gabion Baskets: These are typically taller, with heights usually exceeding 1 foot (0.3 meters). They are box-like structures often used for retaining walls or slope stabilization
-
Gabion Mattresses: These are flatter and shorter, with heights generally ranging from 0.15 to 0.5 meters (6 to 20 inches). Their flat design makes them ideal for covering and protecting surfaces like riverbeds and slopes
2. Application
-
Standard Gabion Baskets: Commonly used for vertical applications such as constructing retaining walls, creating architectural features, or reinforcing slope.
-
Gabion Mattresses: Primarily used for horizontal applications, such as lining riverbanks, channels, and slopes to prevent erosion
3. Flexibility and Stability
-
Standard Gabion Baskets: Their height and box-like structure provide more vertical support and are suitable for areas where height is needed for stabilization
-
Gabion Mattresses: Their flat design offers better stability on slopes and in areas with high water flow, making them more adaptable to dynamic environments
4. Installation and Aesthetics
-
Standard Gabion Baskets: Often stacked vertically to create taller structures. They are more visible and can be used for decorative purposes in landscaping
-
Gabion Mattresses: Typically laid horizontally and are less visible once installed. They are more functional and less commonly used for aesthetic purposes
5. Material and Construction
-
Both standard gabion baskets and gabion mattresses are usually made from double-twisted hexagonal mesh, which provides flexibility and durability,However, the specific dimensions and configurations may vary based on the intended use.
In summary, the choice between standard gabion baskets and gabion mattresses depends on the specific requirements of the project, including the terrain, water flow conditions, and desired aesthetic outcomes
To install gabion mattresses for erosion control, follow these steps:
Step 1: Gather Materials and Tools
-
Materials: Gabion mattresses, galvanized wire mesh, wire cutters, gloves, rocks or stones of suitable size, geotextile fabric (optional), stakes or anchors
-
Tools: Standard construction equipment like tampers for compacting the rocks
Step 2: Prepare the Site
Step 3: Lay Down Geotextile Fabric (Optional)
Step 4: Assemble the Gabion Mattresses
Step 5: Fill the Gabion Mattresses with Rocks
Step 6: Compact the Rocks
Step 7: Stack and Secure the Gabion Mattresses
-
If multiple mattresses are needed, stack them on top of each other. Use wire ties or connectors to secure adjacent mattresses together and prevent shifting. Drive stakes or anchors through the mesh into the ground to anchor the mattresses firmly, especially on slopes
Step 8: Inspect and Maintain
Additional Tips
-
Flexibility and Permeability: Gabion mattresses are designed to be flexible and permeable, allowing water to flow through while retaining soil. This reduces hydrostatic pressure and prevents erosion
-
Environmental Benefits: The voids in the rock fill can become filled with silt over time, promoting vegetation growth and enhancing ecological balance
By following these steps, you can effectively install gabion mattresses for erosion control, providing a durable and environmentally friendly
