This illustration demonstrates the differences
between the square and mattress style gabions. The dimensions given
are just examples of the versatility available in the layout on a site.
The number of compartments in any given unit is also flexible depending on
the physical requirements and unique problems of any given job. |
The above thumbnails are miscellaneous field shots of
both square and mattress style gabions. Notice in the last three
photos how over time organic debris and living plants will infiltrate the
structure enhancing the stability with the intertwined root structure. We
are not soil engineers at Ketcham's however we can implement the fabrication
side of your project and advise you as to what would be your most cost efficient
design options. (508) 997-4787
