What is Gabion ?
 Gabion is a wirework container (cage, cylinder or
box) filled with rock, broken concrete, or other
materials, used in the construction of dams,
retaining walls, etc. civil engineering structures, road
building, and military applications.
What is Gabion baskets ?
 Gabion baskets consist of wire mesh containers that
are filled with locally available rocks. When stacked
together, they can provide some stability to slopes.
Common uses includes :
 Protection from falling rocks or landslides on steep slopes
 Retaining walls to support terraces
 Protection of fields, roads and buildings next to flood-prone
wadis and waterways
Advantages of Gabion baskets
 Porous and free-draining-slowing water movement
and reduce soil erosion.
 Can be made in various sizes.
 More economical than retaining wall.
 Easy to assemble on-site and little maintenance
required.
Disadvantages of Gabion baskets
 When not placed correctly in the landscape, gabion
can quickly fail and lead to increase erosion.
 When use for riverbank stabilization, gabion wall
increase water flow rates and can increase erosion to
the bank immediately downstream. Gabion wall
failure is common in this setting.
 Some gabion baskets on the markets are faulty and
will disintegrate in a matter of months.
Construction of a Gabion basket wall
 Construction of gabion basket wall is time consuming and labor
intensive.
 Level and smooth the area for the first row of gabions.
 Use heavy duty wire mesh to make the gabions.
 Once assembled, the baskets are filled on site with stones.
 Layout your first row of empty gabions – this will be the base of the
wall.
 Tie the individual empty gabions together in several spots with
heavy duty wire.
 Fill the gabions with rock. Make sure that the average rock size is
larger than the mesh of the gabion, so the rock stays in place.
 Fill behind the row of filled gabions with soil or rock.
 Stack new gabions row onto the first row of the wall. Step back the
rows to match the slope. Tie each new row to the previous with
heavy duty wire.
Cautions while use of Gabion baskets
 To control erosion along gully beds, use loose stones
check dams rather than gabion baskets.
 Do not construct gabion baskets walls in flood prone
areas unless first consulting an engineer familiar
with the areas. Gabion wall failure is common due to
frequent misuse in Afghanistan.
