In geotechnical engineering fields such as river management, highway slope protection, retaining walls, and coastal protection, woven gabion mesh has become an economical and durable engineering option due to its flexible structure, good erosion resistance, and ease of construction.
The materials and surface treatment of gabion mesh are crucial to ensuring the lifespan of the project. Commonly used materials include hot-dip galvanized low-carbon steel wire or galvanized and then plastic-coated steel wire. The design of the double-twisted mesh, edge reinforcement, and twisted section length are key details affecting shear resistance and abrasion resistance.
Structurally, gabions wire mesh are constructed by splicing together unit boxes to form a continuous structure, filled with natural pebbles or crushed stone. The particle size distribution meets the requirements for erosion resistance and permeability. Reasonable filling density and a good drainage design prevent water accumulation inside the boxes from causing buoyancy or expansion, thus maintaining structural stability.
The design should clearly define flood flow, slope, rockfall scale, and foundation bearing capacity to select appropriate box dimensions and fill specifications. For maintenance, it is recommended to regularly inspect mesh connectors, twisted joints, and fill displacement, promptly reinforce damaged units, and ensure unobstructed drainage.
In summary, gabion mesh offers a protective solution in geotechnical engineering that balances safety, economy, and environmental friendliness due to its flexibility, adaptability to deformation, excellent erosion resistance, and ecological restoration potential.
