Any construction work in the area of the coastline of water bodies require special measures to strengthen the coast. This is necessary in order to create a solid base for the construction of the foundation and the construction of the building itself or the structure. Coastal is simply necessary where cottages and houses are built with access to water or on the shores of artificial reservoirs when creating them. To strengthen the shores, a variety of materials can be used, as well as specialized equipment, in the cabin of which you can install head restraints with monitors. The most common and most environmentally friendly, as well as a durable option is to strengthen the shores with the help of gabion. What is it, and how such work is carried out, we will consider in our article.
Gabions are blocks of the same shape. These blocks are made without the use of concrete mixtures – only with the help of a metal mesh and natural stone. Carcasses from the grid are filled with small stone and formed in the block. They are not only environmentally friendly and safe for both humans and the environment, but also fit into any landscape and any area. Surely you have already seen such designs used to strengthen the coast if you drove somewhere past reservoirs, or even recorded them in the rear view mirror with a registrar. Such designs are suitable for the shores of natural and artificial reservoirs, they can adapt to a slight deformation of the soil. Habions do not violate the circulation of air and water, including underground ones, and at the same time reliably strengthen the shore.
Habion installation is very simple. To do this, you just need to install mesh frames in the right places, and then fill in the stone. The main advantage of gabions is their acceptable price, as well as unprecedented durability. No other design for strengthening the shores can be strengthened over time, and the gabions are subsequently strengthened by penetrating the voids between the soil stones and the germination of vegetation there.
