Expanded Metal Mesh Features in Architectural Applications
The use of Expanded Metal Mesh in buildings is quite extensive, and the dedicated Expanded Metal Mesh is also used in the corners of the building to protect the corners. So what is the difference between this Expanded Metal Mesh and other Expanded Metal Mesh? How is Expanded Metal Mesh used properly?
Expanded Metal Mesh is made of high quality galvanized material with excellent anti-aging, anti-corrosion and anti-rust properties. In addition to materials, Expanded Metal Mesh's design is also very unique, accurate angular size design, to avoid the concentrated force when the corners are impacted, the external force is evenly distributed to the surrounding edge parts, effectively protecting the integrity of the positive angle.
Expanded Metal Mesh can be divided into punching and expanding. Different processing forms not only facilitate nailing, but also make the corner strips more firmly bonded to the plasterboard or other bonding materials at the corners. When Expanded Metal Mesh corner construction does not require wood slats, the primary plasterer can also make perfect corner lines, shorten construction time and effectively reduce construction costs.
When using Expanded Metal Mesh in construction, first cut it to the required length, and apply a bonding gypsum at the corner to bond the metal corner strip, or directly screw it to the corner. In this way, the foundation of Expanded Metal Mesh is complete.
Then spread the Expanded Metal Mesh along the corner of the joint to the joint compound and gently squeeze it to bond it firmly. At the same time, Expanded Metal Mesh is required to cover 100mm wide joint compound on each side and wait until it is dry. Layer joint filler, dry and sand the surface of the joint with sandpaper.
It is also necessary to apply a third layer of joint filler to Expanded Metal Mesh, but this time it is required to be about 200mm wide on each side, and it will be completed when the joint filler is completely dry. It can be seen that the use of Expanded Metal Mesh is simple and convenient to construct.
