Gabion System
A woven gabion is a flexible double-twist wire-mesh container. Unlike welded gabion, it can tolerate local deformation, making it suitable for riverbanks, revetments and ground that may settle.
Product overview
Choose welded or double-twist mesh by deformation, finish, terrain and assembly method, then confirm basket, joining and coating.
Woven gabions use double-twist hexagonal wire mesh, selvedge wire, diaphragms and lacing wire to form flexible stone-filled structures.
For quotation comparison: Civil design, fill stone and foundation belong to the project; a basket quotation does not replace engineering design.
Specifications
A common system uses 80 × 100 mm double-twist mesh, approximately 2.7 mm mesh wire, heavier selvedge wire and modular baskets with internal diaphragms.
| Buying specification | Common options | State in RFQ / drawing |
|---|---|---|
| Basket schedule | Double-twist boxes or mattresses arranged to the approved layout | Unit dimensions, count, diaphragms and location marks |
| Double-twist mesh | Hexagonal woven mesh selected for unit geometry and project input | Opening designation, twist construction and tolerance |
| Mesh, selvedge and lacing wire | Body, edge and assembly wires may have different roles | Nominal wire for each role and approved substitution rule |
| Coating and polymer layer | Metallic and optional polymer protection selected for exposure | Coating system, polymer requirement and test basis |
| Diaphragms and lacing | Internal cells and assembly method follow the unit schedule | Diaphragm spacing, lacing/fastener type and quantity |
| Fill and site design | Stone grading, base, drainage and stability remain project inputs | Approved fill, foundation, drainage, geotextile and engineering responsibility |
| Baling and labels | Folded units and assembly wire packed by size or wall section | Units per bale, lacing quantity, marks and destination |
