Aerct supplies planted gabion walls system designed for creek slope stabilization uses. We also supply technical support on how to detail, specify, and construct the planted gabion walls. For American and South East Asian market mainly.
Steel Making Gabions:All steel he fabrication of the gabions and in the wrung operations during construction shall be to BS 1052, having a tensile strength of not less than 380 N/mm2 and not exceed saoN/mm2.
and relevant tolerances shall be in accordance with the following table:
(rnm) | Tolerance (rnm) |
2.70 | ± 0.08 |
3.40 | ± 0.10 |
All galvanised in accordance with the provisions of SABS 675 or equivalent, for Class A heavy galvanised mild steel e minimum mass of the zinc coating shall be according to the Table below:
Nominal Diameter of coated | Mass of Coating (G/m2 surface area) |
2.2 -2.9 | 260 |
3.0-3.6 | 275 |
The adhesion of the zinc coating to the such that when the d six turns around a mandrel of four times the diameter of the not flake or crack to such an extent that any zinc can be removed by rubbing with the bare fingers.
Gabionsl comply with the requirements of SAnS 1580 or equivalent. l be mechanically pre-fabricated to become a uniform hexagonal woven mesh wherein the joints are formed by twisting each pair of three half-turns (commonly known as double twist), in such a manner that unravelling is prevented.
The tightness of the twisted joints shall be such that a force of not less than 1.7 kN is required when pulling on one to separate it from the other each ted from turning under the applied forces, and the in the same plane.
The diameter of the ize of mesh used shall be as follows:
(mm) | Type of Gabion | Mesh Size (m m) | |
Mesh lign="center" valign="middle" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">Selvedge | |||
Gabion Boxes | 100 x 120 | 2.7 | 3.4 |
Reno Mattress | 80 x 100 | 2.2 | 2.7 |
We make inspections and tests to ensure that the materials supplied are in accordance with this specification. And all materials comply with the requirements of this specification.
