River training gabions are widely used in the water conservancy industry for the following reasons

In river training projects, the structural features of gabion cage become more and more common to be used in embankment maintenance and slope maintenance or anti-nuisance and anti-nuisance engineering projects, and gradually replace dry stone and mortar wall structural features. So, what are the advantages of gabion cages? What makes people keep applying gabion cages?

Anti-river gabion cage is made of stainless steel wire, which is twisted into different shapes according to mechanical processing and manufacturing, and then composed or made into cages, mesh mats and hanging nets according to the needs of different projects. Or other filler materials, make it integral, with good stability, anti-washout function. In addition, the stainless steel wire applied in the gabion cage is generally low-carbon hot-dip galvanized steel wire or aluminum-zinc-rare earth alloy coated stainless steel wire, which has the characteristics of high compressive strength, corrosion resistance and abrasion resistance.

 The small holes of the gabion cage help the water flow, create conditions for the natural interchange of water and soil layers, and are suitable for the life of aquatic organisms and microbial strains, which in turn enhances the self-purification ability of water quality, and maintains and preserves water quality. Continuous improvement of water source and water quality.

Riverbed gabion cage box can also be semi-finished products in accordance with the intent of the design program processing production and manufacturing, construction site in accordance with the design program for assembly and stereotypes, and then placed on the soil slope or excavated pit, laid into slope management or masonry. A box cage retaining wall is constructed, filled with fill material and subsequently covered with a net. The actual operation is simple, less affected by the adverse effects of the natural environment, suitable for mechanized operations, but also to ensure the quality of engineering construction and accelerate the progress of the project.

 The structural characteristics of the project of river control gabion cage have the following characteristics:

1. Flexible structural features: resistance to heavy rain, water erosion, no structural features of the seam, adapt to deformation, integral structural features of plasticity, used for slope management and embankment safety protection

2. Good water absorption: it can drain and solidify, which can help slope stabilization and soil and water conservation.

3. Corrosion resistance: the surface layer of low carbon steel wire through the anti-corrosion treatment is strong and durable, the surface layer has PVC plastic/PE protective layer thickness, can be used in the ocean and rivers with large changes in water quality.

4. Easy to assemble project construction: no water, no cement, no template, no electricity, simple installation, can be tied into a variety of shapes according to the design program, integral inseparable.

5. Faster speed, help the construction period: can be simultaneous, parallel, assembly line operation for the construction of a number of projects.

6. Economic development can be used: according to the local conditions of the application of local stone resources.
