Questions and Answers

Q. What spacings should the posts be at?

A. Generally posts are spaced at around 1.0m apart. However this will vary from site to site.

 

Q. Can I use timber support posts?

A. Yes, but there is less room inside the gabion cage to place the rocks

 

Q. Do I need the concrete nib wall?

A. Not always, some supported walls only need the posts set in concrete, however the nib wall gives a professional look to the finished wall.
