Welded wire mesh fencing
Welded wire mesh is used as reinforcement in concrete, replacing the traditional “cut & bend” and placement of steel TMT bars. We supply high-quality WWM with precise dimensional control. The product considerable savings in time, labor and money lead. There is an electric fusion welding prefabricated reinforcement consisting of a number of welded parallel longitudinal wires exact distance to cross wires on the required distance.
Advantages of Using Welded Wire Fabrics
Because bars are welded in a mat, the bars do not move when concrete is placed, ensuring bars are in their proper position.
Since WWR is prefabricated and welded in plants, the risk of missing a bar is minimized.
The chance of improper bending of bars is reduced by using WWR since bending machines bend the mat as a single unit
The use of WWR minimized the chance of misplacement since only one type of mat is used in a given section.
Provide the exact size of reinforcement where needed through variable bar size and spacing, thereby reduces steel waste.
No site space needed for steel assembly.
Faster erection time means you can beat changing weather conditions.
Removes reinforcement placement from the critical path.
Less field labour needed.
The material fabrication is automated.
With faster construction, insurance premiums are reduced. For example on bridge deck construction the barrier walls can be constructed faster reducing the time for fall exposure and reducing insurance premium.
WWR can reduce construction time, thereby saving: Crane rental time Equipment leasing Increasing bonus
Lower material cost because not fabricating small bar.
