Blockmesh
BRC Blockmesh, the ideal reinforcement for masonry block or clay walls, is manufactured from cold drawn steel wire (plain or deformed) which conforms to Saudi, British, German, American standard specifications.
The wires are Cold Drawn to comply with the strength requirements to BS4482 and ASTM A82, A496 hot dipped galvanized to BS 443, BS729 and ASTM A 123, A153.
It may also be manufactured from Pre-Galvanized wire to BS443 and ASTM A641 if required.

Strength
A brick or masonry block wall, reinforced with BRC Blockmesh will withstand considerable horizontal pressure from either side.
The use of BRC Blockmesh reinforcing in walls will help to :
- Combat wind effects
- Withstand the loading of material against the wall
- Control shrinkage , thermal and settlement effects
- Enable the wall to span across openings
BRC Blockmesh, manufactured to customer specifications, enables its strength to be used with maximum efficiency, location the wires for minimum specified cover from the face of the wall, and therefore concentrating the reinforcement where it is needed most.
