Mounting gabions is completely up to everyone. All you need is a job desire and a gabion of your choice from Smart Metal Group. If you are one of these enthusiasts, then you are in the right place, because in the mounting of gabions, the name is strange.
Step 1. The first and most important thing to know is where you want to place your gabion construction. Prior preparation at the selected site is required. If the soil on which you want to place the plant is soft or the ground is sloping, you must make some efforts before placing the gabion in this place. Clean and ground the soil base thoroughly and secure it to make sure that the soil does not succumb to the pressure of the gabion. In addition, it is of the utmost importance that you place the gabion on a strictly horizontal surface if you want your gabion construction to be vertical and not tilt over time.
Step 2. If you already know where you want to mount your gabion, all you have to do is assemble its gabion. You don’t need any tools to do this, just a pair of hands. What you need to know when mounting gabions is how to assemble the cell itself. For mounting the gabion structure you need to use the spirals from the set of gabions you received. So what you have left to do is assemble the assembly itself, and it is nothing but to twist that spiral between two gabion lattices. It is as if you sew the edges of the grid to form the cell. If you find it hard to imagine, you can watch the video below.
Step 3. Place the gabion you have already assembled in the selected location and then fill it. In one such cell you can put everything, it depends on what purpose you will construct the gabion. Here’s the place to use the other leads in the kit. Tighteners are those hooks that you need to hook between two parallel sides of the gabion when you begin to fill the gabion. The tensioners do not allow the grille to swell and spoil the shape of the gabion. Additional reinforcement is made at uniform distances in length and height. When the gabion construction is larger, you have to use the so-called diaphragm. The diaphragm is an additional grille that mounts inside the gabion structure and locks in the same way as the other edges of the gabion – again twist the stop between the diaphragm and the outer wall of the gabion.
And if you still have questions about mounting gabions, the Smart Metal Group team is available.
And remember: first the cell, then the stones! (- joke; D)
