Gabion faced reinforced soil walls are a system where the structural stability is achieved by virtue of reinforcement layers of polymer geogrids or steel mesh being placed in the soil linked to a facing skin of gabions.
This type of structure is generally more cost effective for walls 3 to 4m or more in height in fill situations.
As with mass gravity walls the gabion face is inclined at 6 degrees to the vertical and/or stepped.
Design is based on British Standard BS8002 with the gabion face being considered as part of the reinforced soil mass. |
