What is wire mesh reinforcement?
Wire mesh reinforcement consists of pieces of wire welded together to form a grid pattern. Although concrete is an excellent building material and is extremely strong in compression, it has one limitation – concrete is weak in tension. By combining concrete with material that is strong in tension can create a composite that greatly reinforced. Wire mesh is reactive. It only holds concrete together after it cracks, and only if placed properly. It does not prevent cracking.
