WELDED WIRE-MESH

Welded Wire Mesh (WWM), a relatively new product in India. Welded Wire Mesh is used as steel reinforcement in concrete, replacing the traditional “cut & bend” and placing of steel TMT bars. Welded Wire Mesh is used as steel reinforcement in concrete, replacing the traditional “cut & bend” and placing of steel TMT bars. We supply high quality WWM with precise dimensional control. The product will result considerable savings in time, labour and money. It is an Electric fusion welded prefabricated reinforcement consisting of a series of parallel longitudinal wires with accurate spacing welded to cross wires at the required spacing. This concept is a step forward in the mechanization of reinforcement laying. It is the easiest and correct solution for achieving the requirements of quality, reliability, speed and efficiency at construction site.
Advantages of Using Welded Wire Fabrics

1. Because bars are welded in a mat, the bars do not move when concrete is placed, insuring bars are in their proper position.
2. Since WWR is prefabricated and welded in plants, the risk of missing a bar is minimized.
3. The chance of improper bending of bars is reduced by using WWR since bending machines bend the mat as a single unit
4. The use of WWR minimized the chance of misplacement since only one type of mat is used on a given section.
5. Provide the exact size of reinforcement where needed through variable bar size and spacing, thereby reduces steel waste.
6. No site space needed for steel assembly.
7. Faster erection time means you can beat changing weather conditions.
8. Removes reinforcement placement from the critical path.
9. Less field labour needed.
10. The material fabrication is automated.
11. 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.
12. WWR can reduce construction time, thereby saving: Crane rental time Equipment leasing Increasing bonus
13. Lower material cost because not fabricating small bar.
