We Supply Two Types Of Brick And Masonry Wall Reinforcement Mesh: Welded Steel Ladder Mesh And Expanded Metal Mesh Lathing. Carbon Steel Ladder Type Reinforcement Is Designed To Be Embedded In The Horizontal Mortar Joints Of Wall Blocks, While Expanded Metal Mesh Is To Be Incorporated Into Masonry Composite Walls For Crack Control.
Ladder Shaped Wire Fabricated With Cross Rods
Welded Ladder Mesh Is Designed To Be Embedded In The Horizontal Mortar Joints Of Masonry And Brick Walls. It Consists Of Two Parallel Side Rods With Cross Rods Welded At 16” (400 Mm) O. C., Thus Forming A Ladder Configuration. Overall Measurement (side-to-side Rod) Is Approximately 2” (50 Mm) Less Than The Nominal Wall Thickness.
Another Advantage Of Ladder-shaped Wire Is Evident When Grout Is Placed And Consolidated. The Absence Of Diagonal (truss) Cross-wires Improves The Flow And Consolidation Of Grout. Under Articles 3.43 B.4.d, The MSJC Code Typically Requires CMU Block (i.e. Hollow Units) To Be Placed So Vertical Cells To Be Grouted Are Aligned.
Placement Of Reinforcing Steel Ladder Mesh Offers The Following Advantages:
1. Ladder Design Can Provide An Unobstructed Path For Grout Flow.
2. The Welded Mesh Is Placed With Cross-rods Centered Directly Over Block Webs, It Positions Butt-welded T-intersections Of Each Longitudinal Wire With Cross-rods. The Block Face Shells Meet Each Web. When Laid In Running Bond Pattern, Two-cell Blocks Are Placed With Face Shell Mortar Bedding Only. Block Meshes Are Only Mortar-bedded Adjacent To Vertically Reinforced Cells.
