WHAT WE DOTransforming Landscapes with expert Gabion Solutions
We spesialize in the comprehensive planning, precise detailing, reliable supply, and professional installation of Gabions.
Our Eco-friendly solutions are perfect for:
Stage 1Comprehensive Survey
Spillway Damage Caused by Flooding
A comprehensive topographical survey of the impacted area for planning purposes.
Stage 2Planning
Stage 3Repairing the eroded Spillway
Setting out procedure to ensure accurate positioning and levels.
Repairing the eroded area.
A delivery of 10 tons of crushed rock has arrived, and an extra 590 tons are on their way.
Reno Mattresses base placed on
geotextile.
Gabion basket back wall positioned on a gabion mattress foundation.
The primary gabion wall features 500mm steps, commencing from 3 m base.
Gabion Mattresses are installed on the roadway, positioned 50mm lower than the surrounding gabions to allow for a concrete topping.
Concrete is being pored onto the lowered gabion mattresses on the road.
Stage 4Stabilizing the upstream side of the Spillway
3.5m deep cut-off trench lined with Geo synthetic Clay Liner.
1.0m Tall gabion wall constructed on gabion mattresses, with a 3.5m vertical Geosynthetics Clay Liner positioned behind the gabions.
Stage 5Installation of checked dams to reduce the velocity of the water
Check dams are small barriers constructed across dongas or streams to prevent erosion and manage water flow. They play a crucial role incontrolling soil erosion by slowing down water velocity and promoting sediment deposition. The use of geotextile in check dams is essentialas it provides a stable foundation, preventing soil displacement and enhancing the dam’s durability. Additionally, placing a gabion mattresson the geotextile helps mitigate the impact of hydraulic jump, a phenomenon where fast-moving water meets slower water, causingpotential erosion at the dam’s base. This combination effectively protects the structure and surrounding environment from erosion.
Stage 6Gabion cut-off wall Erosion defense on the outside bend
In hydraulic engineering, addressing erosion along riverbanks and bends are critical. Our Solution? The gabion cutt-off wall strategically placed at the outside bend, where water velocity peaks and erosion threatens stability.
The cutt-off wall is precisely positioned on the outer curve of the river or channel. Here, water accelerates due to centrifugal forces, making erosion more pronounced.
