Retaining Stone Gabion Wall Welded Gabion Baskets For Vertical Noise Barrier

Welded Retaining Stone Gabion Wall / Gabion Boxes for Vertical Noise Barrier

Gabion noise barrier, as its name applies, is a type of effective sound blocking construction. It is gabion boxes barrier. Filled with indigenous rocks, gabion noise barrier can provide aesthetically pleasing look and quieter environments compared with traditional noise barriers. Noise pollution has been an ongoing problem for residential and commercial areas. To solve noise problems, Gabion noise barrier has been increasingly accepted. Compared with aluminum, polycarbonate and PVC sound barrier, gabion sound wall shows a different and rustic appearance. Hence, gabion structure has been special favor for many designers and home owners.

Why choose gabion noise barrier

Gabion noise barrier advantages

l High strength

Normally, gabion noise barriers are mounted at an accurate calculated spacing and supported by vertical posts for higher strength. Normally, this spacing is determined by various factors, such as topography, design wind velocities and wall height, etc.

l Dense filling material

Dense filling materials with less gaps and holes efficiently prevent noise passing through the barrier directly.

l Superb noise blocking

Rugged surface of gabion noise barrier effectively makes traffic noise to be diffused and reduced. As an acoustic wall, gabion noise barriers also can efficiently control, absorb and reduce the noise to the largest extent. For example, noise from a large truck is about 85db, a gabion wall in thickness of1mcan reduce 60db comparing with others as shown in the right picture.

l High versatility.

Gabion noise barrier is generally mounted along highways and roads to reduce traffic noises, meanwhile, it can be used as veneers and cladding for sound insulation and interior & exterior decoration.

l Easily installed and long life

The gabion barrier is made from Class A Galvanised mesh, or together with a PVC coating making it very weather and corrosive resistant. Installation is achieved using local unskilled labor, and no plant is necessary.

l Aesthetics

The installation of a gabion clad or freestanding gabion wall using the right rock type can be very visually appealing to the observer.

l Versatile

The gabion barrier can be used as a solid barrier structure alongside roads to protect from vehicle crash damage, can also be used as a cladding to an existing brick building to achieve a much higher level of sound dampening.

l Enhanced noise blocking and absorption

The gabion because of its rough nature and bulk volume easily archive the purpose of blocking and absorbing loud noise. For example a truck has a noise level of about 80 db, the one meter thick bulk gabion can reduce noise by 60 db as shown in the diagram below.

l Density of gabion

The infill of the barrier wall being very dense and heavy in nature will allow for enhanced sound absorption. Most of the sound with a one metre wall will be reduced.
