Gabion construction in front of the Bauhaus in Mannheim

Gabions, often referred to as stone baskets, have become a popular design element in landscaping and architecture in recent years. A notable example of this is the recent gabion construction in front of the Bauhaus in Mannheim, which our company successfully implemented. In this blog post, we would like to take a closer look at the construction process, the advantages and the special features of this project.

1. Planning and preparation

Before the actual construction of the gabions could begin, careful planning was required. The first steps were to determine the exact location and dimensions of the gabions. The architectural conditions of the Bauhaus were taken into account to ensure harmonious integration.

The choice of materials also played a crucial role. High-quality, corrosion-resistant wire was used for the baskets to ensure a long service life. Regional natural stones were chosen for the filling, which are both aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly.

2. Preparation of the construction site

After the planning phase, the construction site was prepared. First, the area was thoroughly cleaned and the soil condition was checked.

3. Construction of the gabions

The actual construction of the gabions took place in several steps:

1. Assembly of the wire baskets : The wire baskets were assembled on site and positioned in the designated locations. We paid particular attention to their exact alignment and stability.

2. Filling with stones : The gabions were filled manually to ensure an even distribution of the stones. The stones were carefully layered to achieve an attractive appearance.

3. Securing and final work : After filling, the gabions were secured and final work such as attaching covers and integrating greening elements was carried out.

4. Advantages and special features

The gabion structure in front of the Bauhaus in Mannheim brings numerous advantages:

• Durability : The use of corrosion-resistant wire and robust natural stones makes the gabions extremely durable and easy to maintain.
• Aesthetics : The natural stones give the area an attractive appearance and blend harmoniously into the surroundings.
• Environmental friendliness : The use of regional materials reduces the ecological footprint of the project.

The gabion structure in front of the Bauhaus in Mannheim is a successful example of how functional and aesthetic demands can be combined. Thanks to our careful planning and professional execution, this project was successfully realized. We are proud that our gabions have contributed to the beautification and functionality of the Bauhaus area.
