Sand Filled Barriers is a modern gabion primarily used for flood control and military
fortifications. It is made of a collapsible wire mesh container and
heavy duty fabric liner, and used as a temporary to semi-permanent
levee or blast wall against explosions or small-arms. It has seen
considerable use in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Sand Filled Barriers operational principle
It is made of galvanized welded mesh panels, spring with other
fittings, canbe filled with sand,earth,
cement, stone, can be used in separate cell or some cells joint
together.

The hesco bastion is a modern gabion primarily used for flood
control and military fortifications. It is made of a collapsible
wire mesh container and heavy duty fabric liner, and used as a
temporary to semi-permanent levee or blast wall against explosions
or small-arms. It has seen considerable use in Iraq and
Afghanistan,Dominican Republic, Afghanistan, Iraq, USA, France,
Kenya, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Italy, Germany.Pakistan, Kazakhstan,
Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Mozambique
Assembly
Assembling the Hesco Bastion entails unfolding it and (if
available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand, dirt or
gravel. The placement of the barrier is generally very similar to
the placement of a sandbag barrier or earth berm except that room
must generally be allowed for the equipment used to fill the
barrier. The main advantage of Military Barrier, strongly
contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters, is
the quick and easy setup.
Previously, people had to fill sandbags, a slow undertaking, with
one worker filling about 20 sandbags per hour. Workers using
Military Barrier and a front end loader can do ten times the work
of those using sandbags.
The Hesco Barrier come in a variety of sizes. Most of the barriers
can also be stacked, and they are shipped collapsed in compact
sets. Example dimensions of typical configurations are 4'6" x 3'6"
x 32' (1.4m x 1.1m x 9.8m) to 7' x 5' x 100' (2.1m x 1.5m x 30m).
