HI-RIB Mesh(High rib)/Expanded Rib Lath(direct factory)
Widely used as a plaster backing on ceilings, walls and stud
partitions. Rib mesh is also
ideal for refurbishing damaged or aged masonry walls when a key for
rendering is not
certain due to disintegration or softening of the wall face.
1. Material: Hot-dipped galvanized sheet
2. Application:
1). Construction formwork mesh has very good engineering quality
and construction security;
2). Construction formwork mesh as the concrete permanent assembly
free sheet is much convenient for engineering design and
processing;
3). Construction formwork mesh is widely used in tunnels, bridges
and valve system and so on
to make the process of construction much more fast and stable.

Installation : Hi-rib lath is ideal for refurbishing damaged or aged masonry
walls, when a key for rendering is not certain due to
disintegration or softening of the wall face. Lath should be fixed
with apexes of ribs against the wall, edge ribs of sheets nesting
into each other should be wire-tied every 15cm and ends of sheets
should be lapped not less than 2.5cm and nesting ribs securely tied
together.
A correctly formed Hy-rib joint outperforms traditionally prepared
joints in shear and bond. Hy-rib reduces the risk of trapped air
and voids withint the concrete.
Stainless steel fixings should be used at sufficient intervals to
hold the lath firmly in position.
