Masonry mesh is an indispensable component in the construction of brick walls, aerated concrete blocks, building foundations. This type of metal product is manufactured by a welded method, by the method of automatic welding of transversely arranged wires from low-carbon cold-drawn wire of periodic profile VR-1 into a card with square cells. The expediency of this product is great, because it is used to strengthen load-bearing and non-load-bearing structures under construction, to absorb forces from the weight of higher floors, roofs, ceilings, to eliminate the possibility of concrete solution getting into the pores of the material of the base of the structure, thereby providing thermal insulation, protection from cracks and destruction of bricks and, accordingly finished structure as a whole.
The main characteristics are GOST standardization of manufacturing and compliance with TU, so you can be sure that the material is suitable for use in construction work. Choosing to use a grid for masonry in the construction, the developer also saves, because you can buy it cheaply and at its expense reduce the consumption of concrete mortar.
In what cases is a masonry mesh used, or what is it called an armored belt or a reinforced mesh? Let us consider in detail the mandatory methods of application, where you cannot do without it:
- construction of buildings using different materials, for example, brick and stone, to prevent the appearance of cracks at the joints due to thermal expansion, temperature changes, soil landslides;
- erection of an object in a cold season at low temperatures, which otherwise slows down the process of concrete setting;
- carrying out the floor screed for the stability and strength of the structure;
- applying a thick layer of plaster to the walls, because without a mesh, a large amount of material will not simply hold;
- reinforcement of the ventilation opening;
- use in the construction of a warm floor;
- the goal is to reinforce the foundation or increase the strength of the blind area of buildings;
- for the construction of load-bearing walls, openings, floor slabs and corners.
If we talk about the installation rules, then how to properly install the armopoyas can be found in the next article, if you go on sending https://sitkazahid.com/en/blog-page/how-to-make-an-arm-belt-1.
Summing up, it can be argued that the masonry mesh is an important element of the foundation of the masonry, for increasing the bearing capacity of the wall and building strong structures of various sizes without cracks for years.
