Design of gabions
Design of gabions
(OP)
Hi,
I am doing a uni research project (final year) on design and construction of gabions and am trying to find any literature or journals on how to design gabion structures - specifically for use in rivers etc to prevent scour. I can't find much about how to size rock etc. Should the design be carried out in a similar manner to riprap?

Just one more question - I am looking for the following paper, my Uni has said that they are unable to gain access to it as no library worldwide has it in it's catalogue and the Maccaferri have not replied to their contact. Any ideas on where I might be able to find a copy? It seems to be a prominent piece of literature so it's weird that I can't locate it.
Simons, D. B., Chen, Y. H. and Swenson, L. J. (1984). "Hydraulic test to develop design criteria for the use of reno mattresses." Rep. Prepared for Maccaferri Steel Wire Products, Ltd., Ontario, Canada, Civ. Engrg. Dept., Colorado State Univ., Fort Collins, Colo.
Thanks,
Sam
