The Necessity of Masonry Reinforcement

Historically, bricks have been a cornerstone of construction, admired for their strength and durability. However, as engineers and builders have long recognised, individual bricks can lose strength when assembled into larger structures. Reinforcing these structures becomes essential to maintain integrity and longevity.

Brick Reinforcement Mesh: A Modern Solution

Brick reinforcement mesh, typically made from stainless or galvanised steel, is a flat, lattice-like product that lends additional support to brick structures. It&#;s recommended for use in areas prone to weakness, such as around windows and doors, where it helps prevent cracking and withstand tensile stresses.

Key benefits of using reinforcement mesh:

1. Durability &#; by combining the natural compressive strength of masonry with the resilience of steel, brick reinforcement mesh helps structures withstand external forces, such as wind.
2. Versatility &#; suitable for both internal and external projects, our stainless steel and galvanised mesh provide maximum protection.
3. Customisation &#; the mesh can be easily adapted to different wall widths, ensuring a perfect fit for every project.
4. Ease of Use &#; laying the mesh every three courses and ensuring a minimum 25mm cover to external faces, makes the installation process straightforward and efficient.

Whilst brick reinforcement mesh is powerful on its own, it often works best in conjunction with other reinforcement methods. For example, using brick and cavity wall ties alongside mesh can further enhance the stability of the building. Additionally, vertical steel bars are often used in demanding builds, especially in combination with ladders, which allow the bars to pass through their gaps.

Where ground conditions are rock-burst prone and challenging, HEA mesh by DSI Underground provides improved surface containment with the addition of prelaced wire strand. In dynamic conditions where an excavation surface deforms, the strata loading is effectively transferred to all bolts and tendons, with a strong connection between the bolts and mesh offered by the HEA mesh installation. HEA mesh has the ability to allow large deformations whilst maintaining a high load capacity. This &#;yield-ability&#; of HEA mesh to absorb energy in dynamic and repeated loadings can complement yielding reinforcement as an element in a complete dynamic system.
