Gabion

A method for adjusting the width of a gabion comprising opposed side walls connected together at spaced intervals by a plurality of partition walls such that spaces between neighbouring pairs of partition walls define, together with the side walls, a plurality of individual compartments of the gabion, adjacent side and partition walls being connected to one another by pivotal connections, wherein at least one partition wall having a first length comprises a plurality of partition wall elements connected together by pivotal connections, and at least one of the partition wall element connections comprises a releasable connection;

• the method comprising the steps of;
• releasing a first releasable partition wall element pivotal connection in at least one partition wall;
• inserting or removing at least one partition wall element in the partition wall;
• and
• reconnecting the releasable pivotal connection to a second pivotal connection, the adjusted partition wall having a second length different to the first length, and independent to the length of any other partition wall.
