Application of Gabion Slope Protection of Nanyang River Channel Regulation in Tianzhen County

Abstract:

Nanyang River channel regulation is one of the major projects for river comprehensive management project in Tianzhen reach of the Nanyang River. According to the geological conditions of ecological restoration, Gabion retaining wall is designed to protect the bed or banks of a stream against erosion. Gabion is made of double twisted hexagonal wire mesh, the thickness of gabion basket and mattress is 50 cm and 30 cm respectively. The slope protection work consists of two parts, the lower part is vertical wall and the upper part is slope wall. The results show that this work can solve the problem of uneven settlement and river scouring, sustain restoration of biodiversity and achieve the harmonious coexistence of humanity and nature.
