Welded mesh

Welded mesh

The Welded Mesh is a metal product used in the construction industry for the preparation of foundations, floors, sills, terraces and so on. and consists of two bars and drawn wires of similar diameter that intersect, so orthogonal and are joined by "points" of welding at intersections.

Mesh is common to find 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12 mm, the selection of these depends on the application and the loads mainly will endure and can be identified, usually four types, standard mesh of 6 , 00 x 2.20 m, special prefabricated "as?, with tight panel dimensions of the molds, those for slabs that are fabricated with ends prepared to overlap in both directions and special welded wire mesh wall, which are made to measure according to the specifications of each project, and can be made with wire of different diameters on the same panel

It is important to note that at times it has been made by craftsmen in the same building but due to the laborious joining the intersections with wire, labor productivity will decline, and therefore the increase of resistance that provides a binding floored, it is preferred to acquire it in this condition

Obviously the work of welding must be done automatically, which is designed with multi-point welding heads, actuated by pneumatic actuators which perform the process quickly, safely and with little defects.

Currently welded steel mesh play an important role in concrete cast as they bring in two ways static and dynamic work in concrete, by a party is an adjunct element allowing the mixture clumps of it and the other parties to provide tensile and shear the concrete which does not usually work well with these efforts.

Shipments are made in sets determined by the customer in terms of mass loading and elevated than that available, it is important to stress that although it has many advantages mounting it usually take special care in big cities and their edges and Steel elastic condition are revealed as risk factors for personnel working with Welded steel mesh, this is because many times, to mobilize city dwellers in the narrow paths and determine the need for building rolled up for better handling, is known of serious incidents associated with cuts in staff that handled without caution, when these "arrangements? are released.

An important factor to consider, too, is the storage and often have a tendency to form oxides in their marriages, pickling focused product that were submitted by the welding heat, and it is recommended to place as soon as possible in the foundry or provision a coating them with some kind of agent that inhibits and protects from corrosion Welded Mesh.
