Tensile strength of gabion wires against simulated weathering and field conditions

Gabions can be applied in both civil and hydraulic engineering, it implies that gabions will be found in or on soil as retaining structures, along the streams and sea coast as erosion control structures. With such wide applications, the gabions must be built durable enough to withstand all possible...
