    Problem with this method of filling (dumping stone in) if that you usually deform the face of the basket. If you don’t care how it looks it’s fine but most people want the baskets to stay square. I always suggest placing stone not dumping but to each their own I just make baskets.

  • @RTUGabions

    Gabions are one of the best ways to fight erosion and stabilize banks. The sheer mass in a basket means it’s not moving once full and any hydronic pressure from water in the bank is allowed to pass through without pushing the wall. Concrete suffers from that pressure in most cases.

    A nice decorative stone wall but not practical for long term protection. The wire will corrode and fall apart and then there will be a lot of rock strewn everywhere. Some will argue the galvanized wire will last forever but it doesn't.

  • @4bambooda1

    This is really bad for stream function and just moves the issue trying to be resolved (generally natural bank erosion) downstream. Bank erosion in this type of stream system is an inherent and critical part of stram function. What happens is this starts a cycle of "repairs" that end up hardening more and more of the stream, causing more and more loss of function and requiring more and more maintenance. Simple solution that maintains the actual conservation of stream functions is to move the trail.

  • @footprintconservation8668

    It's true the river doesn't look much most of the time, but it takes a fair volume of water when in spate and the bank needed to be built back up to 6' to reinstate the path.

    Hats off to you, I love doing this stuff. Question though why not a lime cement with high ash content (water setting) poured into the crates? The metal will be gone in 10 years. Also, seems like a prime opportunity for hydro power. Too far away from consumption?

  • @footprintconservation8668
    @footprintconservation8668 Жыл бұрын

    To be honest, I hadn't thought of that. I don't know anything about water setting cement so it didn't cross my mind - it sounds like an interesting idea though and one that I'll consider if I'm ever called upon to do something similar in the future. Thanks for the suggestion. As far as hydro power goes, my job was specifically to reinstate a path at the top of the river bank, so that would have been outside my scope.

    I hope you don't want that to stay up permanently. The wire will eventually rust and the stones will collapse. It will last a number of years first, but it will eventually collapse. Nothing can take the place of good old fashioned dry stone walls.
