What is wire mesh?

Wire mesh refers to a grid-shaped sheet in which vertical and horizontal lines are arranged at right angles using cold-rolled or draw-processed high-strength steel wires, and the intersections are joined by electric resistance welding. Plain Wire and Deformed Wire are used for welded wire mesh, and are classified into Plain Wire Fabric and Deformed Wire Fabric depending on the wire used.
Plain Wire Fabric is attached to concrete by a secure mechanical anchorage at each wire intersection, while Deformed Wire Fabric is also excellent for structural use, because not only the welded intersections but also the deformability of the wires play an important role in the adhesion and anchorage to concrete.

Wire mesh features and advantages

  • In terms of work speed, it has the effect of significantly shortening the construction period compared to general reinforcement bar work.
  • Concrete adhesion performance is improved, durability is improved, and it is excellent at preventing cracks.
  • High-quality products are possible through a uniform production process, thus making it easy to precisely place bars and maintain quality.
  • By manufacturing products optimized for design through custom manufacturing, it reduces the amount of work on site.
  • Since it is taken out to the construction site as a finished product that has already been welded, installation is relatively simple and can be done by unskilled workers.
  • It is a product with specifications suitable for construction sites of various structures and has a wide range of uses (in roads, tunnels, underground parking lots, office buildings, hotels, schools, hospitals, factories, P.Cs, etc.)
  • Labor-cost reduction effect due to simplification of field work processes
