About this document
Gabion vs. Mattress: Key Differences by GA Jon is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Gabions are rectangular wire mesh structures over 1 foot tall, while mattresses are similar structures under 1 foot tall. Both are made of hexagonal wire mesh divided into cells and filled with stone to form flexible, permeable structures for retaining walls, riverbank protections, and other hydraulic and geotechnical uses. The main difference between gabions and mattresses is their height, with gabions being taller structures over 1 foot and mattresses being shorter under 1 foot.
