RockBox gabion constructions

RockBox Gabion constructions

Rock Box is a high-strength steel mesh volumetric construction that can be shaped to perfectly fit any riverbed and road retaining wall construction or landslide prevention sites with erosion processes ongoing.

Rock Box has been constantly improved and enhanced with the advancement of technology. With its flexibility, high water permeability, and the ease of assembly and installation, it is considered a far better solution than other constructions, especially in areas with high natural hazard risk. Gabions are widely used in civil engineering.

Our RockBox constrcutions outperform general gabions in strength by using 8mm wire net and 16mm steel bar framing, still keeping it a very flexible and multi-purpose solution

RockBox
is perfect for construction in high hazard risk conditions, e.g. seismic active areas.
RockBox
provides protection for unstable soils and rivers with mudflow activity

RockBox gabion constructions is ideal for:
Reinforcement
of coastline
Landslide -rockfall
protection
Mudflow
protection
Construction
of riverbeds

The application range of RockBox includes road, hydro-technical, industrial and civil construction, natural hazard protection and restoration of natural landscapes.

The system is designed for protection, stabilization and reinforcement of soils and slopes, including landslides, embankments, waterbank slopes. Is a perfect solution for retaining walls as swell as rockfall, snow avalanche and mudflow protection. RockBox system can also be used for construction of flood control facilities, landscape restoration activities and other purposes, including working in high seismic activity areas.

Rock Box is perfect when сonstruction period is very limited and conditions are harsh, e.g. rainy season. Use of heavy machinery and construction material like concrete is limited or impossible.

RockBox gabion constructions 5 advantages
Flexibility
Due to the flexibility of design, RockBox is not affected by seasonal movements of soil. RockBox can be successfully applied as mudflow protection.
Stabilization
It drains water between packed stones and is therefore effective for stabilizing slopes with frequent water penetration.
Strength and long service life
High structural strength (a steel net made of 8 mm wire and a frame of 16 mm steel bar, which is comparable to a reinforced concrete retaining wall). All parts are galvanized, which makes it anticorrosive and weatherproof.
Ease of logistics
All parts are lightweight, making the transport and assembly easy. The mechanized filling of rock material in RockBox takes place without any special preparation.
Ease of installation and maintenance
Panels are assembled with metal fittings with no need for welding, which saves manpower and enables easy construction. In the event of a breakage, it is very easy to repair.
