Application:
1. Flood Control.
Most of People used the HESCO Barrier as the bulwark all over the
river, unfold it and filled with sand or earth, instad of sandbags,
it is easy to operate and efficacious.
2. Military Defence
Most of army used HESCO Barrier for protection, because the bullet
can not penetrate it easily, it can prevent explosion, and not easy
to destroied.
3. Hotel Pretection
A lot of Superior Hotel used HESCO Barrier as the protection wall
outside, safety, and beautiful.
A new system of Hesco Bastion concertainer developed specially for
military use is deployed from a container, which is dragged along
the line of ground where the barrier is to be formed, unfolding up
to several hundred meters of barrier ready for filling within
minutes.
Protection
Filled with sand, 60 centimeters (24 inches) of barrier thickness
will stop rifle bullets, shell fragments and other shrapnel.
Approximately 1.2 meter (four feet) of thickness provides
protection against most car bombs.[citation needed] It takes 1.5
meter (five feet) of thickness to prevent penetration by a
rocket-propelled grenade round. In addition, Hesco bastions are
even more effective than sandbags against water.
Assembling the Hesco bastion entails unfolding it and filling it
with sand, soil or gravel – usually using a front end loader.
