Mesh reinforcement and its benefits

Mesh reinforcement is the process of using welded metal wire fabric as a reinforcement for structural concrete elements such as concrete slabs and walls. Reinforcing mesh usually comes in a rectangular or square grid pattern and is produced in flat sheets.

Why mesh reinforcement?

Plain concrete itself is not a good structural material.  It cannot withstand the various stresses caused by external loads, forces such as winds, earthquakes, other vibrations etc.  

Mesh reinforcement helps concrete elements with:

  1. Better crack control: Mesh reinforcement helps to reduce the amount and size of cracks in concrete slabs and walls. 

  2. Effective distribution of load: The addition of steel mesh helps in smooth distribution of the load.

  3. Improved fire resistance.

  4. Added tensile strength
