after the flood barrier was removed,welded mesh machine, large amounts of water rushed towards saphan mai area.
deputy city clerk chumphol sampaopol yesterday said the removal of the floodwall on phahon yothin road would slow down the drainage resulting in prolonged hardship.
he said some areas could be affected as the water in khlong mon 40 could rise by 1cm to 2cm after the barrier was dismantled.
"even though the city's drainage system is working efficiently,wire mesh blog, the removal of the floodwall could slow down the drainage,bridge protection," he said.
"some areas such as lat phrao,u type wire, kasetsart intersection may take another four to five days to dry out." he said that the city has asked the royal irrigation department to install more water pumps south of khlong rangsit to accelerate drainage of water in the don muang area.

"if we look at the big picture and try to understand the nature of water,football fence, that is the best solution,平台钢格板," she said.

military barriers/hesco bastions
information
the qiaoshi's military barriers or hesco bastions is a modern gabion used for flood control and military fortification. it is made of a collapsible wire mesh container and heavy duty fabric liner,fence netting manufacturers, and used as a temporary to semi-permanent dike or barrier against blast or small-arms. one of the less heralded life- and labor-saving devices of war,buy fiberglass mesh, it is used on nearly every united states military base in iraq as well as on nato bases in afghanistan.
originally designed for use on beaches and marshes for erosion and flood control,basketball fence mesh, the hesco bastion quickly became a popular security device in the 1990s.
assembly
assembling the hesco bastion entails unfolding it and (if available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand,苗床网, 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,grassland fence, strongly contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters,电焊网石笼, is the quick and easy setup. previously,stainless wire mesh, people had to fill sandbags,fence post, a slow undertaking,binding wire, 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,razor barb wire, and they are shipped collapsed in compact sets. example dimensions of typical configurations are 46" x 36" x 32 (1.4m x 1.1m x 9.8m) to 7 x 5 x 100 (2.1m x 1.5m x 30m).
a new system of hesco bastion developed specially for military use is deployed from a container,barbed mesh, which is dragged along the line of ground where the barrier is to be formed,雷诺护垫, unfolding up to several hundred meters of barrier in minutes,black iron wire, ready for filling with soil by a backhoe.
protection
filled with sand,hemaraj pushes back rama iii condo-石笼袋,异型钢格板, 60 centimetres (24 inches) of barrier thickness will stop rifle bullets and shell fragments. it takes 1.5 metres (five feet) of thickness to prevent penetration by a rocket propelled grenade round. approximately 1.2 metres (four feet) of thickness provides protection against most car bombs.
