Material Delivery5.1 Gabions and revet mattresses are manufactured with allcomponents mechanically connected at the producti

20、on facilitywith the exception of the mattress lid, which is producedseparately from the base, as per Specification A975. Allgabions and revet mattresses are supplied in the collapsedform, either folded and bundled or rolled, for shipping. Thebundles are banded together at the factory for shipping an

21、dhandling. Revet mattress bases and lids may be packed inseparate bundles. Lacing wire is shipped in coils having adiameter approximately 0.60 m (2 ft). Fasteners are shipped inboxes. Preformed stiffeners are shipped in bundles.5.2 All gabions and revet mattresses shall be labeled toshow their dimen

22、sions, the number of pieces, and the manu-facturers color code if applicable.6. Assembly6.1 GabionsThe folded units shall be taken out from thebundle and placed on a hard, flat surface. Gabions shall beopened, unfolded and pressed out to their original shape (Fig.1). Front, back and end panels shall

23、 be lifted to a verticalposition to form an open box shape (Fig. 2). Panels shall befastened together with the projecting heavier gauge selvedgewire by firmly wrapping the selvedge wire around the selvedgeor edge wire of the intersecting panel or the back panel (Fig. 3).Inner diaphragm panels shall

24、be lifted into a vertical positionand secured in the same manner. All edges of the diaphragmsand end panels shall be tied or fastened to the front and backof the gabion as specified in Section 7.6.2 Revet MattressesThe folded units shall be taken outfrom the bundle and placed on a hard, flat surface

25、. Revetmattresses shall be opened, unfolded and pressed out to theiroriginal shape. Front, back and end panels shall be lifted to avertical position to form an open box shape (Fig. 4). End flapsshall be folded and/or overlapped, as appropriate. All edges ofthe diaphragms and end panels shall be tied

26、 or fastened to thefront and back of the mattress, as specified in Section 7.7. Fastening Procedure7.1 All gabions and revet mattresses must be fastened asspecified in 7.2 and 7.3 at each step of construction.

The maximumlength of the edge to be tied at one time shall not exceed 1 m(or 3 ft). Longer edges shall be join

28、ed by several lengths ofwire. Tie wires shall be secured around the selvedge wire orheavier edge wire, where present, by looping and twisting thelacing wire around itself. Proceed tying with alternate doubleand single loops. Double loops shall be made at intervals notgreater than 0.10 m to 0.15 m (4

29、 in to 6 in) (Fig. 5). The basketFIG. 1 AssemblyGabionsD7014 102pieces should be pulled tightly together during the tyingoperation. The other end of the tie wire shall be secured againby looping and twisting the wire around itself. When using tiewire to assemble the units, pliers may be used to crea

30、te tightjoints. Care should be taken to avoid damaging the wirecoating. Minimum requirements for panel to panel jointstrength using tie wire shall be as specified in SpecificationA975.7.3 When steel wire ring fasteners are used, the use of eithera mechanical or a pneumatic fastening tool is required

31、. Ringsshall be installed at the top and the bottom connections of theend and center diaphragms and then a maximum nominalspacing of 0.15 m (6 in.) along all edges shall be used (Fig. 5).Ring fasteners can be galvanized, stainless steel or Zinc-5 %aluminum-mischmetal alloy coated, depending on the t

Foundation Preparation8.1 The foundation on which the gabions are to be placedshall be level, and graded to the elevations as shown on theproject construction drawings. The foundation for gabions andrevet mattress shall be level, smoot

Installation and Filling9.1 GabionsAfter the foundation has been prepared, thepre-assembled g

36、abions shall be placed in position empty, andshall be tied or fastened to adjacent gabions along all contain-ing edges in order to form a continuously connected, mono-lithic structural unit. All connections shall be in accordancewith Section 7. Gabions shall be placed front to front and backto back

37、in order to expedite the stone filling and lid lacingoperations (Fig. 6). Rock sizes shall be in accordance withPractice D6711. Rocks shall be placed in 0.30 m (1 ft) lifts for0.91 m (3 ft) or 1 m high gabions, and 0.23 m (9 in) lifts for0.46 m (1.5 ft) or 0.50 m high gabions.The fill layer shall ne

38、verbe more than 0.30 m (1 ft) higher than any adjoining cell (Fig.7). Care shall be taken when placing the stone to ensure that thePVC coating on gabions is not damaged. After a layer of rockhas been placed in the cell, sufficient hand manipulation of therock shall be performed to minimize voids and

39、 achieve amaximum density of rock in the gabion. The rock in exposedvertical faces shall be hand placed to reduce voids on the outerface. Stiffeners or internal cross ties shall be installed asindicated (Figs. 8 and 9), connecting the front and back facesof any supported or exposed face at the verti

40、cal third points fora gabion 0.91 m (3 ft) or 1 m high, as the cell is being filled.Gabion units installed at the wall ends, having two exposedsides, shall also include a set of cross ties installed perpendicu-larly to the lateral exposed face. For 0.3 m (1 ft) or 0.46 m (1.5ft) high baskets when us

41、ed as revetment, stiffeners or internalcrossties are not required. When more than one vertical layer ofgabions is installed, units shall be overfilled to approximately0.025 m (1 in) to 0.04 m (1.5 in) to allow for natural settlement.The top surface shall be smoothly leveled, minimizing voids.Ensure

42、that diaphragm tops are accessible for connecting.9.2 Revet MattressesThe pre-assembled revet mattressesshall be placed in position empty and shall be tied or fastenedto adjacent revet mattresses along all contacting edges in orderto form a continuously connected monolithic structural unit.On slopes

43、, the mattress shall be laid with the width perpen-dicular to the slope, except for very small channels. Mattressesshall be placed and securely attached while empty. All connec-tions shall be in accordance with Section 7. Where mattressesare to be placed on steep slopes (1.5 Horizontal to 1 Vertical

44、 orsteeper), the unit may be secured by anchoring systems(hardwood pegs, galvanized pipes, steel bars, etc.) driven intothe ground just below the upper end panel. Diameter, locationand the length of the anchoring system shall be established bythe engineer based on the slope, mesh opening and strengt

45、h,mattress height or as specified in the project specifications.Rock sizes shall be in accordance with Practice D6711.Mattresses can be filled by any suitable appropriate sizemachine, such as a backhoe, crane, etc. Care shall be takenwhen placing the stone to ensure that the PVC coating onmattresses

46、 is not damaged. Sufficient hand manipulation of therock shall be performed to minimize voids and result in amaximum density of rock in the mattress. Filling shall be doneunit by unit, but several units shall be ready for filling at anyone time. Ensure that the diaphragm tops are accessible forwirin

47、g. Securely attach the lids to the ends of the mattressesand then securely attach them to the sides and diaphragms,using alternate double and single loops, or steel wire ringfasteners. Adjacent lids can be securely attached in oneoperation. In cases where a number of adjacent bases are to becovered

48、simultaneously, rolls of mesh can be used in place ofunit size lids.9.3 Non-rectangular Shapes and Special AdaptationWhere a complete gabion or revet mattress cannot be installedbecause of space limitations, the basket unit shall be cut ,folded or overlapped, and securely connected as specified inSe

49、ction 7 to suit existing site conditions. Gabion and revetmattresses can conform to bends up to a radius of 18 m to 21m (60 ft to 70 ft) without alterations.The units shall be securelyFIG. 6 Installation and FillingGabionsD7014 105connected as specified in Section 7, and shall be placed to therequired curvature for filling. Gabions may be cut to formcurves or bevels. All modified gabions shall form a closed cellwhen completed. Excess mesh wire shall be cut off or tightlyand neatly tied down. Care shall be taken that all projectingwires are turned inward
