Gabion cage

The gabion cage process is an ecological process, which integrates the engineering structure and the ecological environment, realizes the organic combination of the engineering structure and the ecological environment, and better reflects the natural return of the engineering structure. The gabion cage is a green construction advocated in China and conforms to the development direction of engineering construction. It can be widely used in water and soil conservation projects such as transportation, water conservancy and gardens in the future.

Gabion cages are mainly used in river water and soil conservation projects. They use high-strength steel wire cages to fix block stones. They are a relatively new type of flexible retaining structures. Compared with rigid and semi-rigid retaining structures, the gabion cage retaining wall has the characteristics of good water permeability, strong seismic resistance and strong scouring resistance. The filling material in the gabion cage is loose, with many pores. While protecting the embankment, it is also conducive to the pores and drainage in the soil layer behind the masonry fill and slope protection, reducing the groundwater pressure behind the wall and reducing the probability of the retaining wall being damaged. The good deformability of the wall can cushion the sudden impact of external forces and improve the mechanical performance of the retaining wall. They can also withstand the erosion of rainwater and maintain the integrity of the structure.

The gabion cage material room and the structure room are novel, which can not only meet the needs of the engineering structure, but also promote the growth of animals and plants, restore the original ecosystem, maintain the ecological balance, protect the natural environment and beautify the environment. In the construction process, it can save resources, save energy and reduce emissions, have good social and economic benefits, and can be widely used in the future.
