CIVIL ENGINEERING
INTRODUCTION
• The most common civil engineering use of gabions was refined and
patented by Gaetano Maccaferri in the late 19th century in Secerned,
Emilia Romagna and used to stabilize shorelines, stream banks or slopes
against erosion. Other uses include retaining walls, noise barriers,
temporary flood walls, silt filtration from runoff, for small or
temporary/permanent dams, river training, or channel lining.] They may
be used to direct the force of a flow of flood water around a vulnerable
structure.
• Gabions are also used as fish screens on small streams. Gabion stepped
weirs are commonly used for river training and flood control; the stepped
design enhances the rate of energy dissipation in the channel, and it is
particularly well suited to the construction of gabion stepped weirs.[3]
• A gabion wall is a retaining wall made of stacked stone-filled gabions tied
together with wire. Gabion walls are usually battered (angled back
towards the slope), or stepped back with the slope, rather than stacked
vertically.
CABION WALL
 CABION wall it
is hexagonal
woven wire mesh
that are filled with
rocks, stone,
cement or soil
they are called as
cabion wall.
WHY WE NEED CABION
 It has high
strength
 It has
durability
 It is
economical
 It is
flexible
 It is ECO-
FRIENDLY for
environment
.
