There is a well-known parable about the builder. Before retirement, a construction worker was given a surprise for the seniority, and the last closed facility became a gift for himself. But he did not know about this. The builder was in a hurry during the execution of work, did not modify something, simplified somewhere, ordered not the best quality materials, because they were delivered here and now. He knew that he was not doing the job perfectly, but he justified himself by the end of his professional career. What a surprise he had when he found out about the gift can only be imagined. The moral of the fable is that you need to do your job as efficiently as possible and approach any business responsibly, even in crisis stages of life, even in the absence of enthusiasm and strength. Just like us, Mesh West is a manufacturer of metal mesh and metal fences. Our mission is to provide the inhabitants of the planet with reliable structures and to protect territories around the world, therefore we produce high-quality reinforced mesh for the construction of durable structures as conscientiously as for our own homes.
But what is better to choose in order to reinforce the masonry so that the house is strong, safe and durable? Rebar or welded mesh armopoyas? What material will fulfill its functions to the maximum, will contribute to the resistance to landslides and earthquakes? What material will cost less and save the budget, but will not affect the strength of the structure? Reinforcement with steel mesh is an important stage in the construction of walls, roofs, masonry, which will protect against soil subsidence in areas with high seismicity.
What is the best use of masonry mesh? For jobs such as:
- during the construction of a building on collapsible soils to prevent the formation of cracks with installation in the first and subsequent third-fifth rows of masonry;
- erection of walls of multi-storey buildings with planning of heavy loads, such as upper floors, floor slabs, roof, mauerlat;
- construction of complex shapes, for example, arches;
- low quality of basic materials such as brick, aerated concrete or wall block;
- framing of places of support of window and door openings.
Why is mesh used more often? If it is planned to make masonry from reinforcement of a thick diameter, then this will lead to an increase in the thickness of the seam and a decrease in its strength, because there will be a large amount of concrete mortar between the blocks. Therefore, a material with a rod diameter of 2-4 mm is used. In addition, the less material is used, the thinner the metal product, the cheaper you can buy it. More durability and less cost - the choice is obvious. And if desired, it is additionally insulated with basalt insulation for maximum durability.
