A high quality expanded galvanised
or stainless steel mesh for use primarily as anti-cracking reinforcement
in the construction of brick and block masonry. Coil Mesh is available
in a variety of widths to suit most wall constructions and is supplied
coiled for ease of handling. Additional applications include strengthening
cornices, low walls and balconies over door and window openings.
Installation: The mesh is laid in strips
between brick or block courses leaving apporximately 25mm clearance
from the faces of the work. Where mesh joins are required, ensure
an overlap of at least 75mm is provided. The reinforcement is then
simply embedded in the mortar for the next course. In most instances,
application every third course will be sufficient
