When a retaining wall needs to rise beyond two or three metres, the mass of a conventional gabion gravity wall becomes both its greatest asset and its greatest limitation. To retain greater heights, the wall must grow proportionally wider at its base — consuming significant footprint, requiring more material, and
From energy dissipation structures at culvert outlets to groins that redirect river flow — we cover the full range of hydraulic gabion applications designed and built to South African conditions and SANS standards.
When bulk earthworks expose bedrock with no natural topsoil remaining, conventional revegetation fails. We explain how we integrated geocell honeycomb modular systems at our Dundee project to establish permanent vegetation cover on bare rock faces — combining green engineering with structural slope protection.
A single property in Dundee, KwaZulu-Natal required six distinct gabion interventions. Here is how we approached it from geotechnical investigation through to final installation — mass gravity walls, rockfall barriers, dissipation structures, and channel lining all on one site.

Architecture and Engineering studio Foster + Partners has won planning permission to redevelop a triangular site in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, with a botanical garden and a pair of plant-covered high-rises.
The organisations said it was looking for commissioners from the energy sector, or tho- se who specialise in the relationship between infrastructure and the environment, or infrastructure policy.
