Fundamentos de especificación de gaviones: soldados vs tejidos y otros puntos

Guía original en inglés

Choose welded or woven by project behavior

Welded gabion baskets are commonly selected when appearance, straight lines, and easier on-site assembly matter. Woven gabions are often preferred in larger civil or river projects where flexibility and deformation resistance are important. The right type depends on the site condition, stone size, and installation method.

Mesh, wire, and coating work together

Gabion performance comes from the combination of wire diameter, mesh opening, edge wire reinforcement, and corrosion protection. Buyers should confirm zinc coating level or additional PVC coating when the project environment is wet, coastal, or chemically aggressive.

Internal structure affects long-term stability

Diaphragms help maintain basket shape and distribute stone load. They are easy to overlook during quotation, but missing internal partitions can change project performance and site labor time. Flat-pack dimensions and bundle method also influence freight cost.

• Confirm basket type, cell size, wire diameter, and coating system.
• Check whether diaphragms, lacing wire, spirals, or clips are included.
• Align flat-pack size with stone fill and installation method.

Clear specification reduces site rework and ensures the basket performs as designed.
