Accepted Answer

Yes. The galvanized coating protects against corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor use and harsh weather conditions.

Question 6

How should I install GI Block Mesh in a masonry project?

Accepted Answer

Position the mesh within the formwork, secure it to supports as needed, maintain proper concrete cover over the mesh, and overlap panels as required before pouring. Follow project engineering guidance for spacing and placement.

Question 7

How do I cut or shape GI Block Mesh to fit my project?

Accepted Answer

Cut with tin snips or bolt cutters, wear gloves and eye protection, and treat cut edges to preserve the galvanized coating where possible.

Question 8

How should GI Block Mesh be stored when not in use?

Accepted Answer

Store in a dry, elevated area out of direct moisture, with coils or panels supported to avoid bending and with protective covers when possible.

Question 9

What are common use cases for GI Block Mesh?

Accepted Answer

Reinforcing masonry and concrete elements such as walls, foundations, and other concrete structures that require added strength and stability.
