8 Practical Awesome Ways To Use Gabions

 What are Gabions?

A Gabion is a constructed enclosed case full of selected materials such as rocks, stone, sand, or concrete. The gabion’s primary purpose is to prevent erosion from construction by making use of its adjustable block structure that enables slope resilience. These are commonly used in engineering projects.

Gabions are very strong structures that are typically used for erosion control, road building, and military applications. But did you know that you can also use them for many other purposes in your home?

What are the types of Gabions?

First, they were garden walls and fences. But now more and more homeowners are starting to build other things with gabions. And it makes complete sense! Not only these are easier to build than concrete, but they could also be a cheaper option if you have access to lots of free rocks and stones.
