The document provides specifications for installing gabion walls. Gabions must be welded mesh with wire diameters of 3-5mm depending on the wall height. The area must be proof rolled and any soft spots excavated and backfilled. The backfill material should be a well-graded granular material less than 40mm in size. Gabion sizes are nominal 2m in length with actual sizes to the nearest 3 inches. The gabion stone should be angular, 150-200mm in size, and placed to minimize voids and provide a dense stable mass.
