In order to meet the various needs, gabions must have the following features:
· Hexagonal mesh pattern critical points
· Double twist to avoid unraveling
· Reinforcing wires woven into corners to reinforce critical points
· A diaphragm securely attached at the base that will prevent the shifting of some and reinforce the Gabion.
Certification:
1. All gabion basket are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of BS EN 10223-3:2013.
2. All wire is in accordance with BS EN 10218-2:2012 and BS EN 10223-3:2013
with an ultimate tensile strength of between 350 to 500N/mm².
3. All wire used in the gabion production or accessories shall be Zinc or Zinc 90% Aluminium 10% coated in accordance with BS EN 10244-2:2009 (Class A) with an additional extruded organic polymer powder coating (grey,green) of 0.5mm nominal radial thickness. This organic polymer powder coating is in accordance with BS EN 10245-2:2011.
Optional Material:
1.Galvanized wire:zinc coating can be from 40-280g per square meter.
2.Galfan wire:also called aluminum-zinc coated wire (10% Al)zinc weight can be from 200g-500g per square meter.
3.PVC coated wire:The inner wire is galvanized wire or galfan wire,and the regular color is gray and green.
