The roots of the plants hold the soil monolithically together. The gabions serve for the vaster joining of these stable units.The synergistic use of modern civil engineering techniques and natural processes allow the use of local resources and thus diminishes transport distances and further destruction of the environment.
In contrast to civil engineering constructions, measures in bioengineering technique need some time to get their maximum strength. Depending on the situation this can take up to several years.
A typical bioengineering approach consists in the use of biodegradable materials, the physical function of which is in the follow taken over by the vegetation.
Bioengineering techniques can help to avoid costly rock anchoring, but it is also used for drainage or erosion control. In hydrological engineering for example synthetic geotextils can be superfluous using phytogenic material and stimulating fast root growth.
Growth of complete plant communities in nurseries can help install vegetation under conditions where bioengineering failed up to now and where traditional civil engineering techniques are hostile to nature. But the construction of biological sewage plants, the protection against traffic noise and accidental risks, or the examination of existing vegetation are part of bioengineering activities.
