Patent attributes
An improved erosion and sediment control gabion multi-cell device, which includes a first end cell having four rigid upright walls, each wall having a plurality of flow openings therethrough; an interior space defined by the four walls, into which a water permeable material such as sand or rock material is placed; a second end cell of similar construction to the first end cell; a center cell engaged to and sharing a sidewall with each of the first and second cells, the center cell having flexible upright wire mesh front and rear walls to allow the multi-cell gabion to flex upward and downward or side to side to accommodate the terrain onto which the gabion is set in place; and a geotextile fabric liner positioned in each cell to help restrict flow of soil through the device.
