Non-Itavel i n1. The ~.airc mesh .is Lo 1>c I-,~bri.cr.it~• i.n r,~.icli a macncr <br />as to be non-raveling. This is defined as the ~L-ility to resist <br />pulling apart at any of the twisCS or connections forming the mce.h <br />when a single wire strand in a sectior•. of mesh is cut. <br />Mi~T fiRIALS <br />Galvanized Stec1 wire Mesh Gabions. Clabion baskeC uni.CS shall be of <br />non-raveling construction and fabricated from a double teaist:ed <br />hexagonal mesh of. hot dipped galvani;:cd steel w.irc having ^ mi.n.innim <br />diameter of 0.113 inches (US gauge 11) after galvanization. 'Pbe <br />=_~t:eel wire used shall be galvanized prior to weaving into mesh. r\11 <br />cabion diaphragm and frame wire shall equal or exceed Fed. Suec. <br />C!C?-w-4618, possess soft tensile str•~ilath, and a Finish 5 Class 3 <br />z.i.nc coating'of not less than 0.30 ozjsq. ft. of uncoated wire surface. <br />The weight of zinc coating shall be as determined by AS'PM t<-~st <br />designation A-90. 'Phe uniformity oC coating shall equal four one <br />minute dips by the Preece Test, ASTM test designation A239. Mesh <br />openings shall be hexagonal in shape and uniform in size measuring <br />not more than 3; inches by 4'~ inches appro::imately (+ 9 sq.in. area <br />opening). Selvedge or perimeter basket frame wire shall he of a <br />heavier gauge than t-he mesh wire with a minimum diameter of O.15U <br />inches (US gauge 9) after galvanization. Lacing and connecCing <br />wire shall meet the same specifications as the wire used in the <br />gabion body except that its diameter shall be of 0.0366 inches <br />(US gauge 135) after galvanization. <br />All of the above wire diameters are subject to Col.erance limit <br />of ± 2 ;%. <br />Gabion Standard Sizes <br />'LGble 1 <br />Lett~,r Code <br />Capacity <br />Dimensions No. of Ce11s Cu.
