Gabions |
摘要 |
A single box gabion is disclosed. The gabion comprises interconnected side walls. Each side wall comprises at least one substantially closed side wall element panel that prevents a gabion fill material from falling through the side wall without the aid of a gabion lining material. The single box gabion can be coupled together to form a modular gabion structure to protect military or civilian installations from weapons assault or from elemental forces, such as flood waters, lava flows, avalanches, soil instability, slope erosion and the like. |

1. A gabion comprising a plurality of interconnected side walls, each side wall comprising at least one substantially closed side wall element panel,
wherein each substantially closed side wall element panel is manufactured of a sheet material, wherein the substantially closed side wall element panel is provided with a hinge receiving means for connecting the substantially closed side wall element panel pivotally to a neighbouring side wall element panel, thus allowing the gabion to fold for storage or transport from the fully erected and connected condition without detaching any panels from one another; wherein additional reinforcing members are affixed along the interconnection edges of said substantially closed side wall element panels, wherein each of said reinforcing members comprises a strip, and wherein said substantially closed side wall element panel is effective in preventing a gabion fill material from falling through the side wall without the aid of a gabion lining material. |
