Analysis of the characteristics and advantages of galvanized gabion mesh

Galvanized gabion mesh is a wear-resistant protective mesh product, generally composed of high-strength, low-carbon galvanized steel wire or filaments with a 5%-10% aluminum-zinc alloy coating, often covered with a PVC or PE plastic layer. The finished structure is more rust-resistant, anti-static, and possesses high compressive strength and shear strength. It effectively resists seawater erosion or severely polluted environments.

Galvanized gabion mesh is constructed on multiple twisted, hexagonal double-chain meshes. The length of the galvanized steel wire in the double-chain section should not exceed 5 cm to avoid damaging the protective layer of the wire. According to the design requirements of gabion and stone packaging projects, the river channel management mesh is fully connected for use in dikes, bank protection, and water conservancy construction projects. It is mainly used for river, bank slope, and roadbed slope protection structures. It can prevent riverbanks from being attacked and damaged by water and waves, realize the natural convection exchange function between water and soil under the slope, achieve ecological balance, and add a greening effect to the landscape.

Mesh Specifications: Mesh Model: 1-4 meters wide, 1-2 meters high, 3-6 meters long, 2 meters wide, 0.2-0.3 meters high. Generally made of hot-dip galvanized (zinc- or aluminum-plated) steel wire, galvanized polyester film + (zinc- or aluminum-plated) wire, wire diameter 2.0-40mm. Steel strip includes low-carbon steel wire, grade conforming to standard (GB/T700-2006), and the mechanical properties of the steel also conform to the standard.

Features of Galvanized Gabion Mesh:

(1) Protects the ecological environment and increases greening effect.

(2) High permeability, does not block rainwater from entering.

(3) Good corrosion resistance, long service life.

(4) Good impact resistance, can be laid on riverbanks and coastlines.

(5) Good flexibility.

Applications of galvanized gabion mesh: water conservancy projects, highway and railway subgrade slope protection, slope ecological management, coastal engineering, disaster management, large-scale slope support projects, river ecological construction, municipal landscaping, bridge and beam protection.

Advantages of galvanized gabion mesh:

1. Galvanized gabion mesh is a flexible structure. Flexible structures are safer and more stable than rigid structures, and can better adapt to slope changes without being damaged.

2. Can withstand the impact of a large water flow of 6 meters per second.

3. With the permeability of groundwater, it has a strong influence on the natural inclusion and filtration of groundwater. Suspended solids and silt are deposited in the gaps, which is conducive to plant growth. Over time, vegetation cover will gradually recover, and the original ecological environment will gradually be restored.
