● Installation & Maintenance
Installation:
1. Prepare the foundation and level the installation area.
2. Unfold Gabion Baskets and assemble the panels using lacing wire or spiral binders.
3. Place the baskets in position and secure adjoining units for structural integrity.
4. Fill with hard, durable stones using machinery or manual methods while maintaining even distribution.
5. Close the lids and ensure tight lacing to prevent material displacement.
Maintenance:
1. Inspect wire coatings periodically, especially in coastal or high-moisture environments, to ensure corrosion resistance.
2. Monitor settlement and refill if stone displacement occurs after flooding or heavy rainfall.
3. Replace damaged baskets to maintain system stability in long-term Gabion Baskets application projects.
4. Encourage vegetation growth for additional structural reinforcement and ecological benefits.

● Preparation before installation and construction
1. Understand the project requirements and construction drawings in detail, and clarify the layout, size and required quantity of gabion cages.
2. Conduct a survey of the construction site to confirm the geological conditions, environmental conditions and obstacles in the construction area.
3. Prepare the required construction materials and tools such as gabion cages, connectors, and iron wires.
4. Develop a construction plan, including construction sequence, staffing and safety measures.
● Cage assembly and placement
1. According to the design drawings, assemble the cage on a flat ground.
2. Ensure that the various parts of the cage are firmly connected, the corners are flat, and there is no distortion.
3. Use connectors and wires to fix the edges of the cage to enhance the overall stability of the cage.
4. According to the construction requirements, place the assembled cages in the designated position and order.
● Stone selection and filling
1. Select stone that meets the requirements. The stone should be hard, wear-resistant, non-weathered, and have moderate particle size.
2. Before filling the stone, lay a layer of gravel or fine sand as a cushion to increase the stability of the bottom of the cage.
3. Use appropriate tools and methods to evenly load the stones into the cage to avoid local bulges or excessive accumulation.
4. During the filling process, pay attention to controlling the density of the stone to ensure the overall stability and carrying capacity of the cage.
● Construction Notes
1. During the construction process, the construction drawings and specifications should be strictly followed, and the layout and size of the cage should not be changed at will.
2. Pay attention to protecting the integrity of the cage to avoid damage during transportation and installation.
3. For special construction areas, such as places with large slopes or unstable foundations, corresponding reinforcement measures should be taken.
● Post-construction inspection and adjustment
1. After the construction is completed, conduct a comprehensive inspection of the cage to ensure that there is no damage, deformation or displacement.
2. Check whether the connection parts of the cage are firm and reliable. If there is any looseness, tighten it in time.
3. As needed, fine-tune the position and height of the cage to ensure it meets the design requirements.
● Routine maintenance and upkeep
1. Check the cage regularly to see if there is any damage, deformation or corrosion.
2. Clean the debris and dirt on the surface of the cage to keep it clean and beautiful.
3. Regularly tighten and replace the connectors and wires to ensure they are in good working condition.
● Frequently asked questions and solutions
1. Cage damage: If damage is found, it should be repaired or replaced in time to avoid affecting the safety of the overall structure.
2. Cage shape inspection: For slightly deformed cages, reinforcement or adjustment methods can be used to repair them; for severely deformed cages, they should be replaced.
3. Loose connection parts: Tighten loose connection parts in time to ensure the stability of the cage.
● Safety construction and environmental protection requirements
1. During the construction process, relevant safety regulations and operating procedures should be followed to ensure personnel safety.
2. Construction workers should wear safety protective equipment, such as safety helmets, safety shoes, etc.
3. Obvious safety warning signs should be set up at the construction site, and effective isolation measures should be taken to prevent irrelevant personnel from entering the construction area.
4. Pay attention to protecting the environment and avoid environmental pollution caused by noise, dust, etc. during the construction process.
Through the above steps and precautions, the installation, construction and maintenance of gabion cages can be effectively completed to ensure the smooth progress of the project and the long-term stable operation of the cages.
