120 TRUSS-MESH REINFORCEMENT

120 Truss-Mesh is a truss type continuous length joint reinforcement for single wythe walls. 120 Truss-Mesh is embedded into the horizontal mortar joints of masonry walls for superior performance of masonry wall construction, as it offers the following benefits:

• Reinforces a variety of masonry walls
• Greatly reduces cracking that can arise from thermal stresses
• Enhances resistance to water penetration, as cracks are controlled
• Increases lateral flexural strength
• Bonds exterior and interior masonry wythes together in composite walls
• Bonds masonry at intersecting walls and corners
• Increases elasticity
• Increases performance of masonry walls under various stresses
• Fabricated in conformance with ASCE/ACI 530 building code requirements for masonry structures, and ASTM A 951 (standard specification for masonry joint reinforcement)
