Welded wire mesh, or welded wire fabric, or "weldmesh" is an electric fusion welded prefabricated joined grid consisting of a series of parallel longitudinal wires with accurate spacing welded to cross wires at the required spacing.
Welded wire mesh is used in the construction industry with a wide range of applications in different types of building projects, as well as in foundations and reinforcement for light and heavy traffic roadways.
The primary use of Welded wire mesh is to reinforce concrete. Due to drying shrinkage, temperature changes, and weak soil, concrete tends to crack. Welded wire mesh along with aggregate helps to maintain the concrete slab in one unit. Welded wire mesh meets ASTM A-1064 specifications
