Gravity Walls

Maccaferri Gravity Walls are used for bank stabilization, erosion control, and retaining structures for roads and railroads. 

The stability of mass gravity retaining walls relies upon the structural integrity of the units and their filled mass, to support or contain unstable earth slopes. In order to select the optimum Maccaferri retaining wall solution, key considerations include:

  • The geotechnical parameters of the retained and foundation soils
  • The presence of water and hydrostatic loads
  • External loads from structures and live or seismic loads 
  • The simplicity and speed of construction

Certified by many authorities worldwide and manufactured in compliance with ASTM A975, Maccaferri double-twist woven gabions offer strength and high drainage capacity. Long-term stability and client reassurance is provided as these structures are capable of absorbing differential settlement and deformations.
