Ground stabilisation

A cell assembly for a ground protection system, the cell assembly comprising opposed upper and lower faces, opposed first and second end faces and opposed first and second side faces, wherein the cell assembly comprises at least one cell for containment of rock pieces;

• wherein a first continuous length of chain-link wire mesh wraps around to define the opposed upper and lower faces and the opposed first and second end faces of the cell assembly, the first continuous length of wire mesh comprising a single continuous sheet of chain-link wire mesh having a first end and a second end overlapped and fastened together to form an overlapping join positioned on the upper, first end and/or second end face of the cell assembly, wherein the single continuous sheet wraps around to span each of the upper, lower and first and second end faces of the cell assembly,
• wherein the first side face of the cell assembly is defined by a second continuous length of chain-link wire mesh that at least partially wraps around a face of the cell assembly adjacent the first side face, the second continuous length comprising a single continuous sheet of chain-link wire mesh that spans the first side face and extends across at least a portion of said adjacent face;
• and wherein:
• the second side face of the cell assembly is also defined by the second continuous length of chain-link wire mesh, wherein the single continuous sheet of the second continuous length spans the second side face and spans said adjacent face of the cell assembly;
• and
• the single continuous sheet of the second continuous length extends across at least a portion of the upper face of the cell assembly;
• or
• the second side face of the cell assembly is defined by a third continuous length of chain-link wire mesh that at least partially wraps around a face of the cell assembly adjacent the second side face, the third continuous length comprising a single continuous sheet of chain-link wire mesh that spans the second side face and extends across at least a portion of said adjacent face;
• the single continuous sheet of the second continuous length extends across at least a portion of the upper face of the cell assembly;
• and
• the single continuous sheet of the third continuous length extends across at least a portion of the upper face of the cell assembly.
