High Ribbed Formwork is designed with steel sheets formed into mesh and U pattern rib bone. The Hi-ribbed mesh lath is a kind of concrete permanent assembly-free formwork lathing product. Highly ribbed mesh formwork is widely used in building construction to form retaining walls, columns, stopends, construction joints and used to support slab flooring.
High Rib Lath is produced from hot dipped galvanized steel expanded metal sheets. It provides longitudinal 3/8" ribs and small inverted ribs, together with a small herringbone mesh offering superior strength and spanning capabilities. The hot-dip zinc coated steel sheet is produced according to BS 2989 Z2 G275 standards.
Manufacture of Hy-ribbed Lath Formwork:
The mesh and ribs are formed on machines by cut and press the mesh and then rolling the ribs. At the same time the material is stretched to form an expanded mesh.
