STANDARD WELDED WIRE MESH FABRIC FOR CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT

SPECIFICATIONS
1) STANDARD MESH FOR CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT
The production of mesh reinforcement complies to BS 4483. Mesh is
produced from cold reduced deformed steel wires according to BS 4482.

a) Mechanical Properties

Specified characteristic strength: 460 N/mm

Tensile Strength: min 510 N/mm. In addition either the tensile

strength recorded in the tensile test shall be at least 5% greater

than the recorded yield strength or alternatively the minimum
elongation shall be not less than 12% measured on a gauge length
of 5do.

Shear strength of the weld: The shearing load required to produce

failure of a welded intersection shall be not less than 0.25 A fy,

where A is the nominal cross-sectional area of the smaller wire at
the welded intersection and fy is the characteristic yield stress of the
wire (460 N/mm).

b) Chemical composition of steel

Carbon C: max 0.25%
Sulphur S: max 0.060%
Phosphorous P: max 0.060%
Carbon Equivalent Value Ceq: max 0.42%
Where Ceq = C + Mn/6 + (Cr+V+Mo)/5 + (Cu+Ni)/15

Cold reduced, high tensile, deformed, according to BS 4482

Note 7/5(): Mesh Type Q257 is produced with cross wires Y7/150mm. Longitudinal wires
in the middle section of the sheet are again Y7/150mm, while in the marginal areas, on
either side, the longitudinal wires are Y5/150mm (3 No Y5mm on each side). This is saving
weight at the side overlapping areas.
