Expanded Rib Lath for Formwork

High Ribbed Formwork

High ribbed formwork is manufactured from hot-dipped galvanized steel sheets. Because its meshes and U patterns, it has better anti-stress capability and forming flexibility than normal metal lath.

This product has excellent engineering quality, construction security and widely used in tunnels bridges, valve basement systems, sewage systems, subways, retaining walls, nuclear power plants, shipyards, water pools and marine engineering works and high rise building projects and non-regular or bending pattern etc. asconcrete permanent assembly-free formwork.

Features:

1.Visual concrete pouring

Because it is comprised of porous open mesh, high ribbed formwork reduces the risk of voids and/or honeycombing occurring within the concrete.

2.Lightweight and convenience for transportation and installation

High Ribbed Formwork is only 10% as heavy as the common steel module, featuring fast installation and convenient transportation.

3.Suitable for segmented concrete pouring

High Ribbed Formwork is a permanent one that is easy for concrete to bond with the next pour without dismantling the formwork or making a juncture, thus simplifying bonding work.

4.Good mechanical performance and low side pressure

High Ribbed Formwork is only subject to 60% of side pressure compared with common formwork, thus enabling to decrease weight of rib bone by 40%.

5.Easy for muff coupling and shearing and optimizing technologies and increasing shearing strength High Ribbed Formwork will produce an ideal surface with high shearing strength combined with poured mortar that will penetrate into the formwork through the mesh pores.

6.High Ribbed Formwork is multifunctional, easy to cut and bendable to form different shape to meet different requirements.
