Common Uses for Trench Mesh

Reinforcing trench mesh is engineered for long, narrow concrete elements where structural stability and crack control are critical. Common applications include:

• Strip Footings: Ideal for supporting load-bearing walls and transferring structural loads to stable ground.
• Edge Beams: Used around the perimeter of residential slabs to prevent edge cracking and movement.
• Ground Beams: Reinforces beams within foundation systems for industrial and commercial buildings.
• Retaining Wall Footings: Provides strength and durability for footings beneath block or concrete retaining walls.
• Foundation Stiffening: Used in engineered slab designs to improve load distribution and structural performance.
