Gabion for Retaining Wall

                                                    

gabions used with geotextiles are wire mesh boxes, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retain/contain soil particles. Gabions and geotextiles used together reduce water velocities and re-capture river bed sediment in streams. Flat Gabions, called River or Reno Mattresses are widely used in river courses where soil erosion is a problem over a large flat area needing to be protected against soil loss or scour. They are used mostly in the civil engineering industry especially in the construction of roadway draining structures, however recently due to their environmental benefits are being used in many various applications and industries

The Reno mattress is a structure made of hexagonal double twisted wire mesh. Reno mattresses are filled with stones at the project site to form flexible and permeable, monolithic structures such as river bank protection and channel linings for erosion control. The steel wire used to manufacture the mattress is heavily zinc-coated soft temper steel. The standard combinations of mesh is shown in Table. In order to reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire having a greater diameter. Reno mattresses are divided into uniformly partitioned cells by internal diaphragms.
