How to better operate gabion sinks
October 21, 2022
1: The gabion net operation, the first thing to pay attention to is to woven the wire cage made of stone cage sinking row. It can also be electroplated and coated with pvc (polyvinyl chloride). The
Pvc Gabion can also be used as a revetment and toe protection.
2: The gabion net is filled with stone, preferably with hard weather-resistant stones, so that it will not be broken quickly due to the abrasion of seawater in the stone box or gabion sink. Stone cage nets with different types of stone have different characteristics. The corner stones can interlock with each other very well. Stone cages filled with such stones are stronger and less likely to pull away. Therefore, it is used in a large shear wall that resists shearing. It has a more prominent effect than a round stone and has a better effect. On the other hand, it facilitates the connection of gabions. The approximate size of the filler is 1.5 times the grid size. A single block stone can not be smaller than the mesh size of the filled cage. Here, we can say that the length of the weaving gabion net used by us in daily situations is (60mmX80mm~100mmX120mm), and the normal size is not more than 200mm. For block stones that are placed inside and away from the surface of the gabion, the request for a minimum block size may sometimes be relaxed.
3: Stone baskets (box gabions). The gabion net is a web-format product of iron or polymer filaments that hold the rockfill in place. Wire cages are grids made of wire or welded structures. The construction of these two gabion cages can be electroplated. In order to increase the service life, the braided wire cages can be coated with a pvc protective film on the gabion cage to prevent the wire from rusting in the water for a long time. problem. The gabion cage formed by weaving is more flexible than the
Welded Gabion, so the performance to adapt to subsidence and load is different. Although it is necessary to carefully fill the stone data to ensure that the stone is filled densely, it is sometimes thought that Rigid tanks are easier to fill than those with non-standard profiles, such as corners, or centers that can create large subsidences. Such fabrics are preferred when the braided wire or polymer lattice structure is deformed without loss of strength.
4: There are two kinds of filling methods inside the gabion net, one is mechanical filling and the other is manual filling. Each of these two methods has its own point. First, the mechanical filling and mechanical filling are common. Fast and cheap, but not as good as hand filling. When the retaining wall requirements are relatively high, manual filling should be adopted, which will produce a better appearance and constitute a dense structure. With these two methods, the filler must be completely filled with gabion. Fillers must be well packed to minimize voids. The contact between the individual stones is good and they are packed as tightly as possible to reduce the possibility of stone movement in the gabion net. When the packing size is in the normal range, the polygonal and round stones can be packed tightly and some soil can be added.
