Grid plaster: yesterday and today

Plaster walls has been used for a very long time.Confirmation of this finding, scientists all over the world during excavations traces of human presence, which date from the end of a bygone era.And for a long time for quality plastering reinforcement used - plaster the walls of the grid, which is pre-mounted on the work surface.

Today reinforcement is most often performed by a special mesh - a metal or polyurethane, as used for this purpose served as shingles (for internal and external surfaces), or sometimes - a homemade wire frame.Mounted mesh with glue, screws, screws, or other similar devices for other purposes.

Forms grid for plaster

following types of networks:

  • Mason - a plastic made of a polymer material with a size of 5x5 mm cell is used for masonry;
  • versatile small - made of polyurethane material with a size of 6x6 mm cell, is perfect for a reinforcement of plaster mixes and finishing.Convenient, broad functionality, allows you to work all areas;
  • rounder middle - the same structure as the previous, but with the size 13h15 mm mesh;
  • large wagon - this grid is different mesh size - 22h35 mm, used for reinforcement over large areas (warehouses, production halls and the facades of other large-scale structures);
  • fiberglass - consists of specially treated glass fibers with a size of 5x5 cells.It features high resistance to chemical and thermal influences, heavy-duty, capable of carrying heavy loads.The application of this base for reinforcement is very wide and has virtually no restrictions;
  • plurima - biaxially oriented mesh for plaster made on the basis of polypropylene, with a size of 5x6 mm cell.It features easy and chemical inertness, it is used for interior and exterior painting and decorating;
  • Armaflex - polypropylene mesh, with reinforced nodes and the size 12h15 mm mesh.Heavy-duty, perfectly suited for use in places with high load the plaster layer;
  • sintoflekas - grid consisting of polypropylene, the size 12h14 and 22h35 mm cell.It is easy and inert to chemicals.Suitable for indoor and outdoor decoration;
  • steel - is based on steel rods, welded at the nodes, with a wide range of cell size.Metal mesh plaster perfectly holds the load, but is applicable only for interior decoration, as unprotected steel does not tolerate precipitation;
  • galvanized - mesh, galvanized Binding of rods, welded together in knots, with a variety of cell size.Perfect for internal and external works, has high strength and high durability, is used in virtually any environment.

Plastering of walls on

grid depending on the layer that you put (scratch coat or finish coat), plastic mesh for plaster or metal can be mounted in different ways.The bottom layer of plaster reinforced with selected mesh top by applying a solution of the desired thickness, lightly pushing it it.

Ideally for the application of the latter - skim or decorative layer reinforcement initially attached special adaptations to the dry surface.But the processing of small areas as fasteners may make itself a solution to plaster the walls.In this case it is applied first dot to a secure grid.And then - a necessary thickness of the plaster layer is spread evenly over the entire surface.

Using a grid can significantly ease the finishing work and the choice of a particular type depends on the specifics of the work and your ability to pay.
