Expamet Bed Joint Brick Reinforcement Ladder 100mm x 2.7m
Expamet Brick Reinforcement Ladder 100mm x 2.7m is stainless steel bed joint reinforcement for strengthening masonry and helping control cracking in brickwork.
This structural ladder reinforcement is installed into the mortar bed joint to increase the lateral strength of masonry. It can be used as brick reinforcement in bed joints for new construction, or as part of a suitable repair approach where crack control is needed in existing masonry.
Key Features
- Expamet structural bed joint reinforcement ladder
- 100mm wide brick reinforcement ladder
- Designed for brick reinforcement in bed joints
- Suitable for mortar bed reinforcement in masonry construction
- Stainless steel construction for use in external walls
- Flattened wire helps maintain cover within the mortar bed joint
- Can help increase lateral strength and support crack control
- Colour coded red for easy gauge identification
Specification
| Product | Expamet Bed Joint Reinforcement Ladder |
|---|---|
| Product type | Structural ladder reinforcement |
| Width | 100mm |
| Length | 2700mm |
| Material | Stainless steel 1.4301 |
| Material gauge | 3.0mm track, 2.5mm cross-wire |
| Colour coding | Red for easy gauge identification |
| Application | Brickwork bed joint reinforcement, masonry reinforcement and crack control |
Brick Reinforcement in Bed Joints
Brick reinforcement ladder is laid into the mortar bed joint to reinforce the masonry horizontally. This helps improve lateral strength and can reduce the risk of cracking caused by movement, shrinkage or stress concentration in the wall.
Bed joint reinforcement is commonly used where additional masonry reinforcement is required, including around openings, long wall runs, areas at risk of cracking and locations where the design aims to increase spacing between movement joints.
When to Use 100mm Bed Joint Reinforcement
This 100mm reinforcement ladder is typically used where the wall width, masonry design or specification calls for 100mm wide structural ladder reinforcement. It is suitable for external wall applications where stainless steel reinforcement is required.
If the wall or design requires a narrower reinforcement ladder, Wade also stocks a 60mm Expamet bed joint reinforcement ladder.
Installation Note
Bed joint reinforcement should be fully embedded into the mortar bed with suitable cover and overlap in accordance with the project specification and manufacturer guidance. Expamet’s flat wire reinforcement guidance refers to a 225mm overlap at ends.
Important Selection Note
Before ordering, check the required reinforcement width, material, wall construction, exposure conditions and any engineer, architect, building control or warranty-provider requirements. Bed joint reinforcement is not a substitute for wall ties; it reinforces the masonry bed joint rather than tying two leaves of a cavity wall together.
