The BRC wire mesh is a steel reinforcement material that is mainly utilised for building and construction purposes. It is also known as welded steel wire mesh or reinforcement wire mesh.
The wire mesh is made with automatic welding machines. Steel wire rods are electronically welded into a fusion of wires without reducing tensile properties.
Progress Abms is the supplier of high-grade BRC wire meshes and building materials in Singapore.
Common Applications of BRC Wire Mesh
BRC wire mesh can be used in the following applications:
- Public housing and construction projects
- Interior design as decorative walls or panels
- Reinforcement of concrete structures and casting
- Road surfaces
Advantages of BRC Wire Mesh
Improves site productivity
BRC wire meshes are supplied as prefabricated cages and can be used promptly.
There is no need to lay, cut, bend or knot single bars, reducing installation time at working sites.
- Reduces wastage
The wire meshes are prefabricated to structural requirements in a factory, preventing the misplacement of steel and on-site cutting.
Less steel is also required in its manufacturing process, reducing excess material wastage.
- Suitable for any structural requirements
They are available in a wide range of styles and sizes to meet accurate design requirements.
