COMPATIBLE WITH 8-INCH BLOCKS: Truss Mesh Reinforcement measures 8 ft in length and 6 inches in width, with 10-inch cross rods designed for use with 8-inch masonry blocks.
DURABLE CONSTRUCTION: Made from 9-gauge (3.75 mm) hot-dipped galvanized steel for excellent corrosion and rust resistance.
RELIABLE MASONRY BONDING: Effectively bonds exterior and interior masonry wythes in composite walls while securing masonry at intersecting walls and corners.
CRACK REDUCTION: Reduces cracking caused by thermal stresses and improves resistance to water penetration.
IMPROVED WALL STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY: Enhances lateral flexural strength to resist bending forces and adds elasticity for greater durability.
VERSATILE USE: A truss-type continuous length joint reinforcement ideal for single wythe walls and suitable for reinforcing a variety of masonry wall types, ensuring long-lasting structural integrity.
CODE COMPLIANT: Meets ASCE/ACI 530 and ASTM A 951 standards for masonry structures.
MEETS ASTM A153/A153M-B2 (1.5 oz/ft²): Hot-Dip Galvanized after fabrication.
WIRE (CARBON STEEL): Prefabricated from cold-drawn steel wire conforming to ASTM A1064/A1064M
