How to construct flood-proof gabion mesh for bridges?

       Most of the flood control projects in the past used mortar masonry or dry masonry, which had nothing special except higher cost, shorter service life and more complicated construction. With the update of the times and technology, a new flood control alternative has emerged, which is gabion mesh. A hexagonal wire mesh cage woven with anti-corrosion and wear-resistant galvanized steel wire or galvanized plastic-coated steel wire, filled with stones, can be constructed. How to construct the gabion mesh for bridge flood control?

       Gabion mesh is used on both sides of the bridge or bridge squat, which can better stabilize the bridge foundation or consolidate the surrounding slopes. The gabion mesh flood control and revetment forms include direct protection and indirect protection. The gabion mesh filled with stones is neatly arranged to prevent the flood from scouring the bridge.

       In July and August in the domestic summer, it enters the rainy season and the precipitation increases sharply, which is bound to pose a threat to the bridge. At this time, to protect the bridge, in order to reduce scouring, gabion mesh as a supporting structure will be more stable and prevent the collapse of the bridge piers, which is a good choice.
