Hexagonal wire mesh/galvanized hexagonal netting/wire netting/Road
Mesh
Road mesh(Reinforced gabion mesh) is one of double twist hexagonal woven wire mesh with a transverse
rod woven into the mesh.It is made from heavily zinc coated
galvanized or galfan coated wire, and therefore can easily be cut
with a concrete saw or equivalent.
Use of Road Mesh(Reinforced gabion mesh)
Road Mesh is a unique bi-directional high strength steel
reinforcement used in new or rehabilitated asphalt pavements to
provide solutions for reflective cracking, asphalt fatigue and
surface rutting.
Developed specifically for flexible pavement reinforcement, Road
Mesh can be introduced into the upper bound layers of the pavement
structure for rehabilitation or new build construction. Developed
initially to inhibit reflective cracking in the asphalt layers,
research in the USA and Europe has shown Road Mesh to enhance the
working life of the whole pavement structure.
Road Mesh(Reinforced gabion mesh)must be considered in existing rehabilitation and new pavement
design, where the bound layers require additional strength to
resist crack reflection, accelerated fatigue due to high
deflections and traffic, and surface rut resistance.
Advantages of Road Mesh (Reinforced gabion mesh)
Although a pavement reinforced with Road Mesh will be more expensive to construct than one without, it will last
longer, and the time period between maintenance works is also
increased. Road Mesh is proven to extend the fatigue life of all
pavement layers, not just the bound upper layers in which the Road
Mesh is installed.
