1. Cut one of the longitudinal wires.
2. The length of overlap for masonry reinforcement should
be at least 250 mm and the separation between longitudinal wires ≥ 20 mm
In accordance with the specifications of the current
standards, a correct overlap between truss type masonry reinforcement should
meet the following requirements: Length of overlap: 250 mm (0,6 the distance of
the pitch of the cross-wires). Horizontal distance between overlapped wires: 20
mm.
Lateral coating of the wires that have been cut: 30 mm
(except stainless steel wires).
The “plug structure” of the geofor® reinforcement ensures
all these requirements without any need for manipulation by the operator.
IMPORTANT: At the ends of the reinforcement for
structural use it must meet the tree requirements: ADHESION, MORTAR COATING and
OVERLAP.
