About this asset

This cranked gabion wall Revit family provides a modular structural component for site landscaping, featuring a stone-filled mesh. This Revit family represents a cranked gabion wall segment, designed for site enclosure or retaining applications. The form consists of two linear sections meeting at a corner, creating an angular configuration suitable for corner transitions or boundary changes. The surface texture is defined by a stone-fill pattern contained within a metallic wire mesh structure. The geometry is straightforward and blocky, maintaining a consistent height and width throughout the length of the segment. This component is intended for use in site plans where modular, permeable, and robust retaining wall systems are required for terrain management.

The download is a 205 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

In Revit, this family is typically placed as a site component within the project environment. Users should load the RFA file into their project and place it on the site plan or within the topography. Due to its nature as a site element, it can be aligned with existing retaining wall layouts or boundary lines. The material parameters can be adjusted to match project-specific stone types or wire mesh finishes, allowing for consistent visual representation in both plan and 3D views.

This gabion unit is well-suited for exterior landscaping projects, including residential gardens, urban parks, and commercial site developments. It is commonly used for terracing slopes, creating decorative boundary walls, or defining pathways in public spaces. Professionals typically search for this asset when designing sustainable drainage solutions or robust, low-maintenance retaining structures. It pairs effectively with natural stone paving, timber decking, and native planting schemes, providing a textural, industrial aesthetic that integrates well with both modern and rustic landscape design concepts.
